Da beginning.
I too soloed in a 150 at Dowagiac, but that was back in 1963. Been flying private ever since (over 60 years). My latest and final ride is a TBM 940.

Not much going on here. But I had my first light aircraft flight here in a Citabria. A year later, I did my first solo here in a Cessna 150. Nice long runway, good place to practice (there's never anyone around).
