Solo - Any advice?

'My CFI strikes me as the kind of person who will just hop out in a week or two and say "your ready".' That's just what my instructor did. We'd spent the hour practising takeoffs and landings. I thought the lesson was over and stopped the aircraft when he told me it was time to fly on my own and got out. His only other words were "if you have any doubt about the landing, go round again". I still think it's the best way. You just don't have time to worry or think about it - you just go and do it!
