We both know that a sudden gust, especially if with a definite crosswind component just as the wheels touch down, can require a quick and accurate response. I would consider this level of almost automatic input is not acquired by the second solo flight. Also, who is carrying the can for a bent propellor, a dent in confidence, or worse?

When I have flown with a couple of instructor friends of mine, they ALWAYS shout out ‘CLEAR PROP’ as a matter of habit really, whatever light GA aircraft they are flying that has propellers.

      @@modoaviao655 I would suggest learning as much as possible now, while you're waiting to turn 18, through text books and training videos as well as spending time talking to pilots and other aviation enthusiasts about their experiences. This will give you a great idea of what to expect and some basic knowledge that you can use upon starting your formal training at age 18. Go for it! 😊

    How many months did you study until you reached your first solo flight?

      Around 2-3 months. I flew around 10 hours before my first solo flight.
