My first flight as a qualified pilot didn't go according to plan. Shortly after takeoff and departing the airfield's circuit, the oil pressure needle went sky high. So I immediately head back to the airfield, mentally preparing for an emergency / forced landing if the engine quits on me.
Ultimately it was a false alarm, with the oil pressure gauge reading incorrectly, perhaps a poor earth connection or just a faulty gauge.
Hope you enjoyed my first flight as a qualified pilot, first urgent action needed, and also my first RU-vid video. There's more flying adventures to come soon, so make sure to like this video if you do, and subscribe to come fly with me in the next one.
