First Solo Cross Country Flight
Hi! I'm Erin, and I am an 18 year old student pilot training to become a future professional pilot. In this video, I took you guys up with me as I flew my first cross-country solo from KFUL-KRNM-KCRQ-KFUL. This is only the beginning of my flight journey, so I thought it would be fun to film and bring you guys along with me! Make sure to like, comment, and subscribe for many more upcoming videos (:
Update; I am a Private Pilot now!

    Very impressive for a student pilot. And this was three years ago. She's probably a commercial pilot by now. Good job on your memorable solo cross country. Fly safe and fly often.

    That crazy SoCal airspace, and didn't even sound like a busy day, haha. Excellent example of your early expertise as a pilot. Also, congrats on the PPL per your update! Cheers!

    Brilliant, really enjoyed watching, and when I was a student pilot many years ago I always struggled a little with ATC, you smashed it out of the park girl, well done indeed.

    Thank you for this video. I know it was two years ago so I’m sure you are already a commercial pilot. I just solo’d today and now I need to work on my XC. This video inspired me. You were on point with your radio commo! I wish I can be as articulate and calm as you!!

    Wow! I am rooting for you. I had a friend who got his pilots license a little younger. By the time i met him he was already rated for instrument, multi-engine and was getting seat time with the big famous Oakland cargo air in the mid 1970s. If he could do it, I'm sure you can. No insult to Roman, my friend.
