Not anything super interesting but I thought was cool as I had never landed at a primary class b airport. Flew a part down to standard aero at KIAH for a local jet that was down. Got to KIAH about 11:15pm made a smooth landing on 15R

That's affirmative, in a 172 to boot! That time of night atc was really nice and accommodating. They didn't even hand me off to ground once I landed. They asked about 10nm out if I was going to be a full stop. Yes and told them where I needed to go on the field. When I landed he said turn right next taxi way and taxi to parking and that was it. Piece of cake.

Damn, That's a lot of runway for a 172....
If my google-fu is correct, it's about 400 ft longer than the landings I made over at Alliance... (Also in a 172, which seemed to go on forever)
