In this episode of the Iowa Fire Flyer Podcast, I talk about progressing through private pilot training and getting endorsed to complete your first solo flight.  What does it take to solo?  How many hours?  What skills will you learn prior to soloing the airplane?  This episode answers all of these questions and more.  I also share the story of my first solo....a day I will never forget!  If you are wondering what it's like to fly an airplane by yourself for the first time, this episode is for you.  Enjoy!
