my first instrument lesson in the plane was tonight. the weather was calm and perfect for flying around the practice area. did steep turns, unusual attitudes, localizer approach back to KJYO and all under the hood. it was a neat experience. i'm looking forward to more.

Congratulations on your first instrument flight! Training for an Instrument rating can be very rewarding.
In my case I feel like I've learned more about flying during my Instrument training than I ever did during my training for the PPL, and it most certainly has made me a safer pilot.
Something you can really look forward to in your training is to go flying in the clouds or actual IFR. It is an exceptional feeling to be inside the middle of a cloud with no visual references and still being able to control the airplane accurately....until the runway lights appear through the clouds ahead of you and you can land safely....And as a bonus you won't need to wear the hood either. :)
