My first flight all by myself, 3 takeoff and landings. Just a little choppy, was a little intense.

Congratulations! 62 years old here, bought my RV-12 Legacy from someone else.
Ironic, no previous license, but I solo'd yesterday, also. I do have my first photo of just me in the plane as PIC. No video.
This is all I have as proof.

congrats
There is rarely a more satisfying feeling (at least on a family friendly site) than solo in an aircraft. It is such a huge responsibility and mix of tasks. Non-pilots can rarely appreciate the three dimensional reality of all it takes to get from the hangar to the sky and back again... and not screw it up.
Well done!!!!
Hope your weather holds and you do it again soon.
