Almost there

My friend, Matt, completed his first solo today. He did great. If he was nervous at all, he didn't show it. He's well on his way.

Slipping the surly bonds of Earth

I've been up a few times alone, but this was the first time I remembered to drag a camera along. A bit of weather today. Ceiling between 2500 and 3000 feet above the field. I must admit, that the clouds look more broken in this picture than they seemed while I was flying. I stayed about 1000 feet below the ceiling simply because it was getting bumpier as I climbed.
