My Solo Flight

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 31 ต.ค. 2020
- Hi! I'm Erin, and I am an 18 year old student pilot training to become a future professional pilot. In this video, I took you guys up with me as I flew solo and did some traffic patterns at KFUL. This is only the beginning of my flight journey, so I thought it would be fun to film and bring you guys along with me! I'm just starting out my channel, so make sure to like, comment, and subscribe for many more upcoming videos (:
this was my second solo flight
Update; I am a Private Pilot now!

Nice job. However, let me suggest two things. First, let me encourage you to ALWAYS look for possible traffic on approach before you take the runway. You entered Runway 6 and never looked to your left to make sure the approach was clear. ATC can make mistakes and it's possible they could clear you with someone about to land. That controller actually cleared a pilot to land on the wrong runway when you were in the pattern. He cleared them for Runway 24 instead of 6. The pilot himself caught the mistake. So stay sharp and always look for approaching traffic even if you've been cleared onto the Runway, including a line up and wait clearance. Secondly, your second approach was pretty low and flat. That could be a big mistake with those buildings so close to the runway. If you have a decent enough runway length, always pick a landing spot about a thousand feet down the runway. If you lose an engine you'll still make the runway. Had you lost an engine on that approach you would likely have never made the runway. Nothing says you have to land on or near the numbers. Keep flying safe flights.
So so so cool! I love love your videos, the music is very cool too! Congratulations!!!!!!!!
Butter landings. Good job!
Perfectly centered and smooth landing. Great job. 👍😎🛫
Thanks so much!
Great job on the solo! Keep up the good work. I love watching solos to better help my students, and you did amazing!

CONGRATS
Thank you so much Sam! It means a lot (-:
Please keep posting I’m also a student pilot myself barely started 2 weeks ago it be nice to see you cross country alone 💯✈️
Thank you, I’ll definitely keep posting! My cross country solo is in 2 days & im so looking forward to it (-: best of luck to you on your flight path
@@ErinNnekaLai How did it go 🙂
@@yehanmudalige6596 super well! I have a video of it on my channel (:
@@ErinNnekaLai Nice to hear that Sis im planning on starting flight school next week would appreciate any tips.Waiting for your next upload
@@yehanmudalige6596 that’s so exciting for you! Let me know if you have any questions, I’ll be glad to help
Congrats on your solo flying! I remember when I first soloed back on February 21st, 2020 and it was one of the best days of my whole life!
I’m now a Private Pilot working on my Instrument Rating!
Thank you Chirag! Congrats to you as well, and good luck to you on the rest of your instrument training (:
@@ErinNnekaLai Wishing you a Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays 🎄💫
Nice job! Got this in my recommended feed
hi andy
@@alanhsing4249 hello alan, this was a pretty good vid right?
@@AndyAviation yes!
Congrats on your solo, huge accomplishment especially out of Fullerton. Soloed back in 2015 out of AFI at Fullerton. Good-luck with the rest of your training.
Thank you! What a small world, fullerton is a great airport to practice esp with the shorter runway. Passed my PPL checkride a few days ago, instrument is soon!
Awesome! Well done! It's always so encouraging to see young women kicking off their aviation careers!
One hot tip though if you don't mind me backseat flying, is don't be afraid to use your trim! As soon as you getthe hang of it it's gonna make your life a million times easier - especially when flying the circuit/pattern!
Anyway - subscribed! I'm excited to see where your aviation journey takes you :-)
I don’t mind at all, tips are always very helpful in the learning process. I will definitely take your advice, and thank you so much for subscribing!
Great job! 😎👍🏿
Nice job! Buttered those landings too!
Thank you so much!
Congratulations on your solo! Funny enough, I also soloed in 99157 but it was like a month after you :P and it looked like your landings were better than mine! I was on 24 though, I haven't soloed on 6 yet, but have landed it a couple times with my instructor. Keep up the great work and I'll see you out there!
Oh wow that’s so cool! Congrats on your solo as well I’m sure you did great, see you around (:
Awesome I’m in the same boat rn I posted my first solo flight as well!
🙌 Sending you love ❤️ and abundance energies.
I love to be a pilot 👩✈️ too.
Thank you for this post.
Much love ❤️
Nice job taking command and telling (control) tower you wanted to extend downwind to remain clear of the (antenna) tower! Clearly, your CFI taught you to be responsible for the safety of your flight.
Thank you so much!
Great job Erin. What a thrill for any pilot having their first solo (second, in this case). Keep going and keep up with being as professional as you can in the cockpit. Do some research on the airline career path, as well. It can start out a pretty hard road- you need to be ready for that reality. But with persistence- one day you will land that main line job. Nice work with the videography as well. Keep flying. Maybe we'll hear you on the comms in Class A someday!
Thank you so much for your encouraging words and helpful advice! I will certainly look into it.
That is so cool. I start my class this year hope everything turn out good like yours.
Thank you! Good luck on your training, feel free to reach out if you have any questions (:
Great job! Very inspiring 🥰
Excellent ! Congrats!
thank you!!
Thank you for sharing your experience! Great job Pilot ! ! !
Love the channel, got a new sub here !! :)
I'm also a student pilot at KFUL!! awesome to see such a successful solo. Congrats!!
No way small world! Thank you, I wish you the best in your flight career (-:
@@ErinNnekaLai I am actually flying out tomorrow afternoon lolol. I wish you the very best in your flight career as well. Amazing path :)
Congrats! Nicely done. I look forward to following your continued adventures. Keep the blue side up.
Thank you so much! (:
Very nice!! Do you train at AFI? i was shocked when I heard Fullerton ground
Thank you! No I don't actually, AFI is the building right next to my school though
Nice video of your pattern work. I have no idea what those 2 thumbs downs are all about. Great job!
Thank you so much!
Awesome landing! You are well on your way!
Thank you so much! I truly appreciate it :)
Very cool video, I'm also currently training for my PPL at KLGB and live 10 mins away from KFUL. Have you gotten your PPL yet?
So cool, small world (: & yes! I'm a Private Pilot and I'm training for instrument now
Being a pilot is my only dream but My parents cant afford trainng cost so i work and collect money for my dream. Now I'm20 but I hope to start my trainng at 26😊
Hi Thushani, I'm glad you are working hard and chasing your dreams, you got this!
if you can look into scholarships and grants! if you are thrifty enough you can get your training paid for. aopa has a primary flight training scholarship that is easy to apply for.
@@AtlasMvm Thank you so much for information alex❤️ but can I get more info about this scholarship program .
Nice job.
Congrats!
Thank you!
IM SO PROUD OF U ERIN
AWW THANK U SO MUCH ASHLIE
2:52 RIP flaps RIP white arc
This plane is actually a 180HP conversion, so I don’t need to go below the white arc for 10 degrees flaps.
@@ErinNnekaLai kk that's fair, my bad
KFUL, my backyard! 👍
Wow what a small world!
@@ErinNnekaLai When's the checkride?? Here's my solo video I just uploaded th-cam.com/video/iUobtAVAuxg/w-d-xo.html
@@michaelchoi8744 passed my checkride today!! Officially a private pilot. Congrats on your first solo !
Good Job!
Thank you !!
I fly so much x-plane 11 that im now convinced that I could hop in and do this! Hahahahaha!!! Have you played any simulators, and if so how do they compare with the real deal Erin?
Haha! Ever since I was little, my dad (also a private pilot), has always played with simulators and I would just observe him. However, I wouldn't say that its necessarily the same. In my opinion, simulators grasp the "concept" of flying, but with flying an actual aircraft, you're "applying" everything that you've learned from trainings and such. You should go on a demo flight - I think you'll have fun!
@@ErinNnekaLai no no no! I dont have the financial ability to follow up with flight lessons if I fell in love with the demo flight.
Super proud of you
This is so cool!!!
thank you so much Juhi
Where are you so I could get some lessons
Hi new subscriber here😀. What airline do you plan on working for if u you would’ve be a commercial pilot
*would
My dream is to become a pilot, was it scary when you first started?
Hi Natasha! I wouldn't say it's scary, because since I'm in control of the plane, it's best to maintain composure and calmness at all times
@@ErinNnekaLai Alright thanks for advice
just hi
i love this
love u always jo hehe
WOAH I LOVE THIS UR SO COOL
THANK U JEN JEN LOVE U
😍yes😍 I'm Cute

Sick! I’m flying out of Van Nuys.. keep it up! What’s your goal? Airlines?
Nice! My dad used to train at Van Nuys. And yes, my ultimate goal is to become an airline pilot (:
@@ErinNnekaLai awesome! Are you finished with your PPL now?
@@aarongarcia2004 I took some time off my flight training to focus on college finals and also due to covid, but I’m back to training again and my PPL check ride is this month!
@@ErinNnekaLai sickness!! Congrats! I can’t wait to get there!!
you're beautiful
I'm shocked
Dumps full flaps while over flap operating range.
the plane I fly has a 180 HP conversion, I was taught by my CFI that I’m able to put 10° flaps before the normal operating range.
