It's about first solo.
It's about being right on altitude, airspeed, and heading.
It's about that perfectly vertical upline and perfectly round loop.
It's about being locked to your lead so tightly you look like one airplane.
It's about touching down on the numbers.
It's about knowing your aircraft so well you know everything is right by
just listening.
It's about that call-up to ATC with not a wasted syllable.
It's about hitting all your navigational checkpoints right on the money.
It's about keying the mic to call, "guns, guns, guns."
It's about saying, "I'm not going."
It's about helping the other guy be able to say all of these things too.
It's about flying.
It's not about anything else.
