Today I had my first solo flight at Dodge Co. Airport in Wisconsin, it was amazing. I've been battling swirly winds yesterday and today and
yesterday they just got the best of me so I didn't solo, but today they were not gusting as much so after 5 landings with my instructor I had
my first solo, did 4 landings, on my 3rd base to final turn the wind turned nasty and whipped around to the tail forcing me nose up into a
perfect stall to spin configuration, i was able to get out of that and executed a go-around, over all an amazing time in a Cessna 152 and
can't wait for Tuesday and my next solo, than onto night and cross-country flying.
