Student Pilot First Solo | NEVER BEFORE FILMED 

Our Egyptian girl, how proud I am of her. I saw many Egyptian female pilots today and this really encouraged me. I wish her success and progress. I think she will be a great pilot in the future . 🥺♥️🇪🇬🇪🇬

"The plane feels so much lighter". Haha Congratulations! I remember my first solo well. I was singing "I'm flying the plane by myself". lol Now I'm a Captain at Southwest Airlines and still having a blast. PS...I still talk out loud to myself in certain circumstances. It helps. Congrats once again. Welcome to the friendly skies. :)

The guys on the ground looks more nervous than Roula does😄 Soft beautiful landing! I'll show my daughter this for inspiration, she really loves flying.

Shout to the great staff that prepared her to be successful. Great instructors produce great students. Congrats to Roula for overcoming her feats and showing everyone the professional that she is. Nice work!

I love the way she talks to herself. I do the same thing in stressful situations and it really helps. Great job!

I’m an Egyptian designer but I stumbled across this video and I’m impressed and really proud😍❤️❤️the prayers “InshAllah” “bism Allah” ❤️

Ma,sha,Allah, I used to be a flight instructor myself, she did a great job. Happy Landing Always. 🛩️

Damn my heart was pounding like she were my daughter. Great job, very inspiring Roula!

Congratulations on your first SOLO! The journey of continuous learning has started.

I was nervous to look at the comments. I am pleased that the professionalism of fellow aviators was maintained. This was a great video to watch!

Masha'Allah sister! I am very impressed with your confidence and your remembering of Allah and conduction yourself in a respectable and professional manner.

as a woman, this is so inspiring to see. also can we take a moment to thank the men on ground? they were so supportive. she looked so confident with that needed support 🤍

Congratulations to your first solo! You an inspiration to all young women out there no matter what race or religion despite your Islamic coverings everyone in this team trusted you and that you capable. May Allah swt keep you safe dear sister on the sky or on land...Ameen. ❤

She did wonderful. It's always exciting to see a newly trained person flying solo for the first time.

So much fun watching her solo! I remember my first solo in a 1959 Cessna 172 in 1964. A high five to the instructor. My first solo student as a Flight Instructor crashed a Piper Colt after I got out, removing 225 lbs from the aircraft and reminding her what changes she would notice with only her in the plane; she landed 50 feet short of the runway and flipped the aircraft over on its back. Zero wind day early morning, no thermals, sun to her back, and had 15 hours in her log book and performed 4 perfect landings before I let her go. Her skills were good; she was rested and emotionally ready. The field was a grass strip 3,000 feet long with no trees or wires. She was 20 years old, mature, not injured, and had crawled out of the plane by the time I had run to help. I still wonder what I missed or could have done to make her more ready? The handheld radio for the instruction on the ground would have been helpful. Some things get better, and some things get worse. There are way too many accidents caused by pilot errors. In general, women seem safer due to not taking chances, whereas Alpha men are more confident and take more risks. Their first year of flying may be the safest after they get their license. I have seen IFR Flight Instructors with a student teaching in IFR conditions, and after they landed, I spotted all the static vents plugged up with wax when the plane had been washed and waxed. Bad preflight can kill you. A flight aways begins before you leave home, even two or three days before you must ensure you are physically and mentally ready to fly.

The baby bird leaves the nest, so beautiful. Imagine how much flight training nature embedds into baby birds to just drop and start flying..

Loved it. She's smart, well-taught and very relatable. Very well-done video too.

Masha’Allah. This was very inspirational. Congrats.

Mashallah Roula!! Congrats. That was an awesome Solo! Your school and staff are super friendly. They did a great job. Hope more Muslim women are inspired to take up flying!! 👍👍😊

Congratulations Roula. You did a great job. What smooth landings MashAllah. The first solo flight is so important to motivate you for the upcoming flights. I still remember my first solo and how stressful it was but Alhumdulillah it was good. Keep going and I hope the best for you.

I’m 17 right now, just completed highschool and I’m looking at career options.Piloting really stood out for me but I just needed a little reaffirmation and this video really helped give me the push I needed! ❤

Alhamdulillah.. well done sis.. 👍👍👍👍👍👍

Congratulations Roula. Never forget my first 3 solo landings, 2 touch and go and 3rd full stop. I remember I was shaking until I parked the plane and performed the final check shutting down the engine. Several people stopped by to congratulate me during debriefing.

I remember my first solo. Without the additional weight of my instructor, I was shocked by how the aircraft "popped" up into the sky. It caught me unawares, totally. The freaky part was that my instructor didn't tell me I would be soloing. After some circuits, we taxiied to close to the parking area and he literally just jumped out, buckled the passenger harness and yelled "Good Luck!" Of course, I talked to myself throughout the whole circuit. The landing was great and ATC congratulated me on my first solo. I was stoked.

Ma Sha Allah! Congrats Roula! Hard work pays off

MashaAllah! Good job sister 👍 Congratulations on your first solo flight, 🛫, best wishes from Pakistan 🇵🇰

An Muslim brother from Italy. Bravissima e continua cosi , non mollare mai! Bravaa!

Job well done. Remember always. You start as student and land as pilot. Remember that always !

Awesome job!!! Brings back memories of my solo in fixed wing and then the heli. I literally thought I was going to have a heart attack in the heli on my first solo. 😀

Congrats and welcome to the skies! You nailed it and the landings were spot on! 👍👍

Congrats on your first solo Roula! Onward and upward to the next milestone! Thank you for sharing this experience!

This is great. Congrats to Roula and the instructors.

Congratulations sister! This is an inspiration to so many young men and women.

Congratulations to Roula! She did well! Going solo is a day you'll never forget! Happy landings!

Love seeing these videos of these students crushing it! Congrats!

So proud of you seriously...You are an inspiration to all daughters out there...Keep it up!

What a power girl, well done Roulah! Great effort of the team, I'm a little old, but if I were younger I'd come there to take my PPL/CPL etc :-)

Nice!! You guys should film all solos. Especially for the families and friends of the students.

Congratulations Roula! My first solo was 38 years ago, but I remember every second of it to this day. All the best with your aviation career. (Right hand pattern too - I always found those tougher than left hand circuits.)

Even though my first solo was over 3 decades ago. I can still remembered that it wasn’t this relaxing. You look so relax and energetic Roula. Great job! All the best for your career. Welcome to the skies ; )

Great job. Your landings were picture book perfect. And I loved that you coached yourself aloud through your flights. Congrats.

Roula, Awesome job, congrats on the solo, you nailed it, love your personality!!! your hard work has paid off. !!!!!!

You were amazing Roula and so were your instructors! Congrats and mashallah 🎉🎉🎉

Awesome!!!! I still remember my first solo over 25 years ago. Congratulations and thank you for sharing. Welcome to the club!!!

Well done Roula! It reminded me of my first solo from Oakland Airport some 35 years ago. My heart was beating much faster while watching this video...

Perfect landings every time. Awesome..! Young Lady, you have what is needed to be an excellent Pilot, you rock..!!

Well done, Roula. Great flight, and a great experience that you will never forget. I did my first solo 22 years ago and still watch my instructor's video taken with my camera.

Beautiful talented young woman. Thats awesome. Everything is about dedication and courage to commit.

Nice work Roula, you're a natural 👏

First solo is a great milestone. I was so ready for mine right up until the moment my instructor stepped out, then questioned every decision I made to arrive at that point. Massive relief when it was all over. Congratulations!

Congrats Roula ! Amazing and inspirational job

Congrats! Thats The first big acomplished goal in the pilot´s life! 👏

beautiful air craft, beautiful landing, beautiful pilot

I remember my first solo flight like it was yesterday, even thought it was 43 years ago. My instructor did not give me any warning that it would be solo day. We flew a couple of circuits ten he just hoped out, said to go do one circuit and come back and pick me up by the side of the runway. I did balloon just before touch down. I remember feeling more excitement than fear though both rode the flight with me. Roula, that was an amazingly great first solo take off/circuit/land experience. May there be many more great moments in your flying career.

Congratulations Roula, From experience I know that a first solo is a moment you will never forget. Only problem is that you want so much more now. Leave the pattern, work towards navigation flights and finally prepare for your cross country. My first solo was at the airport of Midden-Zeeland in the Netherlands on the fifth of december. In the Netherlands a special day which you can more or less compare with Santa Claus in the USA. So I could not get a better present than a solo flight. Still remember I was not nervous at all. Only 3 touch and goes and enjoying every single second of it. Wish you good luck in the rest of your training at Sling Pilot Academy.

Congratulations young lady, well done!

Nice landings. Congratulations. You carry yourself very well. Excellent instructors.

Просто умничка! Молодец! Очень уверенно управляла и в принципе держалась, хоть и говорит, что нервничала.

Great job well done in her first solo flight. Must say the academy holds a collection of experts captains and thanks to them all for giving back their knowledge and experiences to the society. Wilson From Nigeria. This is one of my passion.

Excellent first solo...shows quality of training and interest in a students performance ...well done ..

This is very inspirational, good job 👏

Love this for you, Roula!

This video was very inspiring and motivational. She did amazing. Well done.

Congratulations, Roulah. I’m so proud of you

Not only a natural pilot, but also a beautiful pilot. Well done Roula and well done to her excellent instructors!

Congrats Roula Amazing job Thank you to the staff ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤👏🏻👏🏻❤️👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

great positive self-talk. Nicely done!

Your video/channel showed up in my feed today and I have to tell you...NICE work on the edits...and of course, a HUGE congrats to Roula. The video was a joy to watch!

Awesome video! I’ve never seen anything like this before. My solo in 1980 in a Cessna 150. My instructor was 200 lbs and me at 150. Climb rate was so fast it caught me off guard getting to pattern altitude so fast. Landing was the same as it floated a bit. Congratulations! I’m so excited for you!

Congratulations!! You’ll always remember this day even after 10k hrs you’ll remember it as it was yesterday. Congrats 🎉

What an amazing aircraft to solo in! Lucky you Roula!

Literally living my dream, one day I hope to become a pilot too, I am so proud of you :) what a beautiful landing!!!

Alf mabrouk! Well done, beautiful landings - inspirational. I need to take lessons, seriously.

Great school, great student. Well done production. She'll be proud to show that to her kids and grandkids some day. Nice job all around.

Reminds me of my first solo. Excitement and fear combined in a blur around the cuircuit. Wish I could land that well now! Great flying congratulations.

Congrats Roula!! 🎉

Mashaa Allah. Well done, great job, may Allah bless and protect you. Congratulations. All best

Congratulations, great to see another young lady interested in flying. Fly safe.

Fabulous job! You are truly an inspiration to us students who are just learning! What did I love most about the video? All of it!

I recently did my first solo as well, I remember being pretty terrified but the second the plane was off the ground I knew exactly what to do thanks to my awesome instructor, that worry was gone and I had wonderful time.

As a commercial pilot, this gal was the BEST !

This was so beautiful to watch, her enthusiasm and charmingness makes the video so so fun to watch. A banga plus, she is gorgeous and beautiful. An A for every thing in this video, congrats Roula.

I know nothing about flying but I love watching these videos. What an awesome vid! Congrats to Roula, those landings to a complete novice looked picture perfect. Nice job!

Wow, this student is really good, and she can become a real professional pilot in the not so distant future...Good for her!

Congratulation to her !!! and also to the team that lead her to the solo ! wishing success to all instructor of the flight school and all futurs solo ;)

Amazing..Congratulations to Roula!

Great work Roula! Congratulations!

The first solo is something special you never forget. It´s feels like being accepted into a very special club. The first cross country solo is a remarkable experience also. Even it was many years ago, I remember my first solo in a Piper Tomahawk.

do not forget to recite 'Bismillahirrahmanirahim" before take off sis. Salam from channel cheguajak

Great flight! Awesome! Thanks for sharing the moment!

What a great video. Looks like you guys have a top notch academy.

Wow!!! A massive congratulations to you on a awesome accomplishment. I’m starting at Sling in May and your video was super inspiring. Good luck with the rest of your training, as I know your gonna crush it. Hope to see you around the academy. Take great care of yourself and stay healthy,safe and blessed🙌🏾

ماشالله ربي يحفظك مبروك Congratulations to Ruolla, and congratulations to you for preparing her to be a pilot. This reminded me of my own solo 40 plus years ago I would never forget that day and never forget my instructor. He was flying the A380 All over the globe like I hope she would never forget Ibraham or you. Oh, by the way, I still have a cut off of my shirt for that day. I don't know if they still do that now or not.

You did a great job!! Looks like you had great instruction! Congratulations

Well done girl!! Well done!! and the instructor as well!
