Some of you know I dont post very often on here but I do have a brag post today. My 18 year old son solo'd today. For a lot of reasons, I'm very proud of him. He's pictured here with his instructor and his mom.

And in a tail-dragger. Cool.
Yes! It's a Citabria 7eca. He had a total of 8 hours in before the solo. His instructor said he would learn more in a tail dragger. Apparently they are tougher to handle. I don't fly.

Congradulations, I know how he feels just by looking at his big smile. I felt the same way back in 1958. You either love flying or hate it, I think he'll be burning up the sky with a F-18 in the near future.
