First Solo flight KFRG NY

My first solo flight on 4/24/10 in Piper Archer N70FG at Republic Airport(KFRG) in Farmingdale NY. I didnt realize that the camera wasnt filming until after my first takeoff and landing : ( but you get to see the other two. It was a lot of fun!!

@aviator147 How come in some flight schools you can have your first solo flight with a minimum of 20 hours?

[aviator147]

@ahpuesbru you can have it at even lower..10-15 hours..it all depends on how ready you are..i was getting close around 20 hours..then i didnt fly for like a month, and it took me awhile to get ready and feel prepared again
