Now Officially a Private Pilot

Well, last Sunday I passed my private pilot checkride. I am officially a private pilot. I have to wait for my temporary certificate, which will take about 2 weeks. It is not like a Part 91 flight school where the FAA Examiner gives you your temporary certificate right when you are done with your checkride. Anyway, it should be ready anyday now. My official certificate won't arrive until approximately 3 months.

My landings on the checkride were perfect - each landing was very smooth and straight down the runway centerline. I love flying so much. I can't wait to take my first passenger flying. I think that'll be in about 3 weeks.
