You got it!

Seconded
It'd be a shame to do something that much fun and be too nervous to enjoy it.

Good luck... And, even more, Good skill! :-)
My REAL feelings are, of course... PURE ENVY -- I don't even have a motorcycle license, and you're FLYING?!? :-( Oh well... It's good that *somebody* is improving themselves! :-)
(And this oughta show that being only "halfway there" to a piloting license is a heckofalot better than nothing.)

Have to go to Winston-Salem first.
My favorite uncle has become ill (leukemia returned) at he's at Baptist. The weather this time of year up here is a real pain in the ass. But, hopefully in a couple of weeks (that's the earliest he can have visitors) I'll be down there and can hop across to Lake Norman - I'll keep you posted ;-)
