I was actually surprised at the overwhelming calm and how comfortable I felt with the plane. My main worry was traffic seperation in the uncontrolled field. 95% of my traiing has been in Class D towered airports and around Class B airspace, so it felt odd being in control of seperation in the landing pattern. Had 3 guys out there shooting practice ILS approaches, so it made timing interesting on whether to cut in front or get behind em. They didn't know I was solo, and I didn't want no special treatment <) Reminds me of a story my instructor told me. Seems one of his "larger" students broke the seat(came completly out of the floor) in his 152 and held onto the yoke for support. He says all he remembers is stuff "hanging" in the air for the short time they were out of control. LOL....now that's a funny picture.
