I went up today for the third time and did my first stall! We were in a slow-flight sonfiguration and then my instructor told me to do a stall. So, I pulled the throttle back and pitched up steeply. The stall warning horn sounded and finally the plane rolled down and to the left. It was over in a few seconds but it was pretty un-nerving. My instructor assured me that it was normal to be pretty  shaken up after the first stall. We also did steep turns and I did four of them absolutely perfectly, with only a fifty foot altitude fluctuation. I also did a crosswind landing almost entirely by myself. It was a little bit sloppy; I had to much aileron in it and one wheel touched down before the other, but other than that it was very smooth. When we were getting out of the plane, Todd told me that FS had put me hours ahead.

I once stalled my RC model on landing. Riped out the aileron. No serious damage though but not something I would want to keep doing.

I was flying a C150 and it was a pretty scary feeling. Yes, the crosswind landing was extremely difficult, but the landing was all me. About 100 feet up, Todd put his hands in the air and it was all me. It was my third landing ever and was almost perfect for a crosswind, although it was slightly bumpy. I think my favorite part of the whole flight was the steep turns. My goal for the next lesson is to do a stall without the plane falling to the left or right. I want to try to make it go straight over. I bet it will be really hard because in slow flight, the controls are VERY sluggish and sloppy. My mom wants to go next time and we will have to rent a 172. I think I might do a stall and scare the s*** out of her.

WHOA! Well, I hope that doesn't happen, but I think I'll try it anyway.
