I won’t be soloing. I don’t have a pilot’s license. I would be flying backseat in a TF-51. LOL
I work with aircraft and I’ve flown in small aircraft for a couple of hundred hours or so as part of my job. I have taken the controls of a Cirrus SR-22 and a Cessna 170 while already airborne in each. I think I know enough about flying to solo. I just haven’t taken the time to get my formal training and license.

Was that a 170B? (Round tail) They are a fun aircraft, that is if you take that worthless Continental 0-300A3 off the firewall and replace with an 0-360 Lycoming. I owned one of those for a decade and used it all over Alaska. It was a great aircraft!

I meant a Cessna 172, not 170. Not sure of the model letter, but from looking at the Wiki on it, it was between E and H inclusive because it had circuit breakers, but not the Lycoming engine.
