I did something cool today. My first solo!

I remember the only time I ever flew into Indy as a student, the tower ATC tellig me to take the first available taxiway off the runway with a B737 behind me. Didn't have to tell me twice.

The coolest experience I ever had in a cockpit though was when I worked for an airline and they let me sit in the jump seat on approach to San Francisco. Pretty cool watching a DC10 landing next to you on a parallel runway.
