We had a really great day at Aerosport this morning, Captain Paul Messenger decided to learn to fly a few days ago and after just 12 hours of training I made the call to send him solo.
Paul was a really great guy to take from AB to solo, and in a short time was evidence of his hard work and discipline that came through, Paul is a very cool guy and is the Boss of a 130 Meter Super Yacht that has a EC155 Helicopter on it. So he decided he wanted to get a handle on what his Helicopter pilots experience, but at a fraction of the cost.
Well done Paul a very nice circuit flown this morning in perfect Wx, for me it was also a moment because normally I get our CFI to do a check before I call a first Solo.
We trust you will now grow into the hobby and we wish you years of safe flying
Another captain Solo!

Re: Another captain Solo!
Congrats...... Does Paul have any other flying experience?
Good instructors always speak well about all flying machines.
Bad instructors speak badly about machines they cannot fly.
