Today was my first solo flight away from CHD. Performed two touch and goes with my instructor before being released to the training area. What an amazing experience.
I climbed to 3500' and performed some gentle turns. Wind picked up, so I headed back for a full stop landing. My instructor had requested two touch and goes, but I made the decision for a full stop landing rather than circuits (went from calm to 10kts at 60degrees off the nose).
