Congrats!

 :cheers:


So you did it with exactly 40 hours, Nice.
I think it took me about 60, but I kept switching airplanes and doing stuff that I did not really need for my PPL (like spins).

Congrats! Getting it right at 40 hours is quite a feat

I got mine at about 180 hours. I guess I'm just a slow learner.

I thought that was because you were too young to get it?
