..... My first solo was in a glider. Almost made me want to give up having an engine, but I got over it. No acrobatics, just a short, uneventful flight (mostly because there was too much other air traffic in the area which precluded too much gliding by anyone). Was very odd to be flying and not hear that engine or see a prop in front of me.
..... Great experience though!
