What happens after first solo flight?
Not long after your first solo, your instructor will authorize you to fly on your own — still alone, of course. But you'll have to take more responsibility for weather decisions, evaluating the wind, and other decision that until this point were made by, or in conjunction with, your flight instructor.
What flights must be logged in a logbook?
