Landings are pretty much your first focus after basic air work, and you can solo in 15-20 hours typically. A full license is around 80 hours (at least here in Canada), and she had a ppl already.
When i soloed my instructor was kind enough to get out of the plane while we were on the ground. What a horrible experience for this student.
PPL minimum in Canada is 45 flight hours and it’s common for students to solo in 10. “Full license” also doesn’t really mean anything. There’s a recreational pilot permit, private pilot license, and commercial pilot license, with various ratings/endorsements among those.
An Argentinian PPL is likely different, given the article’s mention of the pilot needing to still build time with an instructor. Though, it could’ve been a rental checkout of some sort.
