UK PPL Training | MY FIRST SOLO | Exeter Airport | ATC Audio

[@Templairful]

Congratulations by your step towards your future, Luke! While watching your video, I was reminding my first solo 30 years ago, doing exactly the same: talking to be sure nothing would be forgotten! Fly safe and high!

[@flyluke]

Thanks a lot mate, it’s always good to talk to yourself to not forget a thing, still learning but loving it!

[@Templairful]

@@flyluke True!!

[@flyluke]

Thankyou mate, was really nice for the congrats from the controller :)

[@MartinHenne]

Congratulations! Very smooth landing. Very good on the radios and on the check lists.

[@flyluke]

Thanks a lot mate, landing I was overly happy with and I felt I did the best I could with the radios and checklists etc... but there’s always learning points

[@JoeRichardson02]

Pretty good to be fair, not sure if you changed your take in downwind checklist , carbheat,checked compass and di alignment, suction and charging when checking ts and ps. Didn’t say student to atc that way they know your student and alone.

[@ryanbishop2815]

Great video. At how many hours did you do your first solo?

[@flyluke]

Thanks! It was around 12/13 hours

[@lucidcreationscouk]

Well done, I’m only just starting circuits but still finding RT hard and love how fluent you are, any tips much appreciated!! I’m also flying with ATC from EGNR. How long did it take you to become comfortable with RT?

[@flyluke]

I think with RT it’s all about consistency, the more you do calls, the more you will improve both knowing what to say and how to say it. Just making sure you learn from your mistakes with it and not trying to be perfect, as there’s going to be times when you misinterpret what a controller has said etc. Me personally with RT, I accept that there’s going to be times when I don’t get it right so I just do as best as I can, but it’s just about consistency with it really

[@marcels9111]

Im trying for me ppl wish me luck grate landing btw

[@flyluke]

Thanks a lot! Good luck.
