I thought that normally you lose the shirt off your back, not the front?

Congrats Rick! But when I got mine they cut the tail... on the back side, not the front.

So, you still need a "Tail"? ;)

FWIW, the day after my mother solo'd she served my father with divorce papers.  She never flew again :o

Thanks guys and gals :) Yes, been looking forward to this for quite some time.

Yes, cross-country trips to visit are on my menu. So watch your six ;) 140+kts at 25-45MPG in smooth air beats stop/go during rush hour on a scooter. And a 2g turn is pretty cool too :)

Yes, customary to 'trim the tail' off. Unfortunately the shirt I had selected (months ago) wasn't exactly suitable for public display. So the FBO got the front side, I'll hang the back side in my hanger.

I have an excess of hours in my log book (think old dog, new tricks), but have covered some/all of the advanced stuff getting there. Tuning VOR and following radials, towered, hood, and several 'small' cross countries. Still need night, the cross countries, short/soft field, more hood work, and of course practice.
