Tuesday Morning Solo!!

Brandon Lemen is now a soloed student pilot!! This early morning flyer was up against the usual Northern Nevada fun conditions to fly his first few solo laps at KRTS, runway 26 in N495SP. It was a bit breezy at 10-12 knots, but mostly down the runway which helped slow him down since his instructor wasn’t next to him on final telling him "Too high! Pull the throttle!” If you know Sean, you would understand ;) Brandon has been several times a week usually in that early morning slot to capitalize on the calm conditions. He did not get it today but still demonstrated he has Reno conditions proficiency to PIC an airplane. Brandon was all smiles as he left the office as he knows his hard work paid off. Congratulations to Brandon and his CFI Sean Torbett on this milestone!!
