Congratulations to Christiaan for his first SOLO FLIGHT in Byron. Oakland was so nice to change the ATIS to “no pattern work” after calling for taxi, just for us. So off to Byron. Christiaan made 2 perfect touch and go and one full stop landing on 30, dodging parachute jumping planes taking off against the traffic flow, gliders coming back home and other pilots entering the pattern on the left base.
