About six months (@ one or two days a week on weekends when the weather was good, often at the expense of spotting, so sorry guys!) and 51.7 total hours, I passed my private pilot checkride earlier this afternoon! I'm definitely looking forward to taking some people up to fly.

Congrats! I've had to give up on my PPL for now. Stinkin' economy.

You fly out of SMQ, right?

Yeah, I did my training out of SMQ. I'll probably keep renting from there for a while longer, but I'm looking for a club and might end up flying out of somewhere else eventually.
