    Started at 8:45 this morning and was done about noon. Looking back, I really should not have been as stressed and worried as I was. Next time I will do my best to have all my paperwork and things in order so I can sit back and relax a couple days beforehand. Now its on to Instrument and multi training.

    Congrats!

    Take a break, take your friends up- but be careful. You are going to learn a lot that you will wish you knew now in the next 500 hours.

    Thanks everyone!
    Mikey- Thanks for posting it on the BARF. I did the test in a Citabria 7ECA. which has been a really fun plane to fly. I will be doing most of my instrument in a 172 but I plan on doing a ton of XC and maybe some Acro in the tailwheel still.

    Congrats!!!! Enjoy the license and go and do something fun... take a trip that you always wanted to. (I went and visited friends a couple of states over... then later on it was Vegas) Enjoy the freedom that comes from defining your own mission...

    I keep hearing that. I have about 9 hours in a 210 and have flown a 172 a few times. Im thinking I might supplement my IFR with some Acro to keep things fun. I want to get all my ratings done, but I also want to be a well rounded pilot.
    Vegas is on the list for sure, Its about 3.5 in a Piper from here, should make an awesome cross country!
