Nice one!!! I know it's been a year so a belated congratulations to you! Hopefully you've continued and received your license so you can share this wonderful experiences with others. I've been flying for 37 years now and I still remember my first solo - same airplane type too.

I had to put everything on hold. I had my last long xc to do and my check ride. Unfortunately, finances and a few other things did not allow me to finish. In time and hopefully I will have the opportunity to get back at it and complete it.

Any landing you can walk away from is a good landing. Any landing you can use the plane again is a great landing.

Nice job. What a neat thing to complete your first solo. If I could I'd like to offer a couple of suggestions. First, I noticed that on more than one occasion you failed to read back to ATC what they told you to do. Repeating back exactly what they told you to do regarding how to taxi and which taxiways to use is critical. Just saying "roger" falls short of what is expected and could at some point put you and others in danger. Lot s of people can improve their radio work and I'd suggest you practice and work on that and really get it down. Secondly, I noticed that on all 3 landings you waited until you were over the runway and about to flare before you put in all your flaps. I've never heard of that before and wonder who taught it to you. That surely makes for a higher speed approach and what can be a more unstable approach. The standard is 10 degrees in the downwind, 20 on the base leg and 30 at maybe around a mile outon approach to the runway, so you can get very stable and fly right down to the runway in a stable configuration. I'd seriously suggest you change that practice. Flaps aren't brakes to slow you down over the runway. They do decrease airspeed, but they do it by increasing the camber of the wing therby giving you more lift and allowing you to decend without gaining more speed, which allows your approach to be stable. They allow you to fly safely at lower speeds for landing by giving you more lift and lowering your stall speed, which is what you like to have over the runway. However, they have their limits. If you have full flaps in and are high, trying to nose it down to the runway could see you gain too much speed, and exceed the speed for full flaps. Therefore, you should execute a go around before that happens. Also, I was really surprised that ATC and your instructor talked to you on the radio during your flight. That was unprofessional and could have been distracting, especially on a first solo. Yet, you handled it well. Good for you. Keep flying safely and have fun.

It was on your 3rd trip in the pattern, around 16:50, that I noticed it looks like you're flying by a skeet range. I know they can't hit you, but still, that could add some pucker factor anyway.

I had to look it up. Greenville Gun Club. That's just r o n g RONG! The only time I've ridden in a helicopter was at Stinson Airport in San Antonio, Tx. There's a cemetery at the end of the runway there. Who comes up with the plans for this stuff????

Congratulations, you have accomplished something lots of people dream of and never follow through with. IMHO, your decision to video yourself and narrate to your "audience" demonstrates poor judgement and takes your attention away from much more important things. I would assume you have heard of the "sterile cockpit" rule in the concept of crew resource management, well, the same RULE should apply to you, definitely you do NOT need to be pre-occupied with the camera. I would be interested to know how many hours of instruction you had prior to solo?
