Default First Solo flight today!!

Yes, I am from Canada, and luckily it was a warm day, and I find its
always too hot in the cabin even with the vents open (not to mention I
was sweating form being nervous :P), so it was a nice refresher to get
the water. Im not from Quebec though, im in Ontario and im bilingual.
The guys at my school told me that at the Toronto Island airport, the
school used to dump you in the lake after your first solo....I would
hope to have a warm day there :O

P.S. Cut my shirt tail off?....i dont think so... and yes I suppose the
rate of climb was a bit higher without the added weight of the
instructor. Although my instructor is pretty thin, and I fly a Cessna
172 so its quite heavy anyways so I didn't notice much of a difference.
