I remember my first solo. As soon as I came off the ground I thought to myself, "oh crap, I'm gonna have to put this thing back on the ground by myself in a minute." Loved every second. Good job Beth.

Love first solo flights where you actually get to hear the student talk to themselves. Great video and well done.

"Oh my God it is lighter!" I remember saying the same thing when I felt how different the airplane flew without my instructor aboard.

@:44 "relax." I lost count the number of times I said that to myself during my solo. Well done! Greetings from Phoenix, Arizona.

That's her first solo, my God she flew the aircraft like she has been flying for decades..... Great job and very great on the eyes as well!!

Beth ur disciplinary courage ,taking cool decision through instruction within time, logical and emotional balancing,activated silancy is amazing to me. God bless u my child to successively increasing in ur confidence

Brilliant. Really high quality filming and editing. No preamble. No music. Just gripping entertainment! Providing a running commentary not only helps to re-inforce checklists and keep you calm, it makes for a more immersive experience for the viewer. If that don't make you wanna get behind the controls, what does?

Love this!! Done such a great job 💕 love how honest she is with herself

Nothing comes close to that first solo experience. I recall mine back in 1980 in a PA38. And yes, it did feel so much lighter. Thanks for sharing Beth, great to be reminded of my flying days. Wishing you many safe and enjoyable flights :-)

The real fact is fly a plane is more easier than drive a car.

Takes a lot of courage to go solo, even after the number of training flights needed. Brilliant work young lady, I wish you well in flight and in life.

The commentary is magic to listen to 😂 Well done! I’ve got my first solo circuit approaching and I’m pretty sure I’ll have to turn my audio off for it!

The talking thingy thingy is satisfying 🤣😂🤣😂

Your first solo is the only chance you get to experience the combination of pleasure and shear terror of flying the aircraft alone for the first time. A memory which will stay with you for the rest of your life.

I used to do that 20 years ago when I was doing my training with OAT. I still do it when I am commanding A380 out of LHR from T5.
