Congrats on the anniversary!  I was actually looking at the stuff on the walls in my office the other day, and it caught me off guard how long ago my "initial solo" certificate was dated.  How time flies...

Congratulations.:)

If I remember correctly I soloed Christmas eve 1986 a nice Christmas present.  The climb rate of hat C150 without the instructor I thought I was flying a fighter jet.

I'd have to look at my log book to see when I soloed in helicopters.

Coming up on 39 years myself.  I distinctly remember the day.  I did 3 controlled crashes with the instructor in the right seat, and he called Ground Control to say that we were going to taxi to the base of the tower so someone could get out.  I was thinking - why is someone getting out?..........oh.

1964-M20E you are so right about the C-150 climbing a fighter when the instructor wasn't weighing it down!!
