Tail Feathers
Several traditions have developed in the USA around "soloing", including drenching the student with water and cutting off and permanently
displaying the back of his or her shirt.
In American aviation lore, the traditional
removal of a new pilot's shirt tail is a sign of the instructor's new confidence in his student after successful completion
of the 1st solo flight. In the days of tandem trainers, the student sat in the front seat, with the instructor behind. As
there were often no radios in these early days of aviation, the instructor would tug on the student pilot's shirttail to get
his attention, and then yell in his ear. A successful first solo flight is an indication that the student can fly without
the instructor ("instructor-less" flight). Hence, there is no longer a need for the shirt tail, and it is cut off
by the (often) proud instructor, and sometimes displayed as a trophy

• This experience was a birthday gift for my granddaughter and it was awesome. Everyone was so thoughtful
and her instructor, Jack, was the nicest person you could ask for. Very professional! She definitely wants to go back and
work on getting her pilot's license.12/02/2012
my husband took the flying lesson and loved it! will definitely do again.
My husband and
I had such a great time! We are planning to take additional lessons next month!
My
experience with Sky Training was a great one. I will say that Glenn (the pilot) made the experience even more wonderful. He
was a great, nice, funny person that made the experience a delight.
The instructor was great- we had an amazing experience!
We got to actually control the plane- and I had full confidence that the instructor was in control. Nice guys working there-
Overall- awesome place. Thanks!
