Bob and I met at 8am this morning to finish the checkride. We were originally scheduled to fly yesterday, however the clouds were too low and we had to reschedule for today.
I don't have much to say other than... I PASSED!!! I'm now a certified Sport Pilot!

What are my plans next? I plan on getting checked out in a different airplane called a Remos. Once I'm comfortable with that I will move up to a Cessna 152 or 172 and work towards my Private Pilot Certificate.
