Congrats on passing your PV! Hopefully OJT will be better than your experience here in OKC. I PV in 4 weeks for ZJX. It's no different in enroute classes...we're getting blasted left and right, but I always say, if it doesn't kill you it'll make you stronger.

CONGRATULATIONS!!! AND GREAT JOB TOO!!!!! I'm sure that you feel pretty wonderful right now!!! See, you did it.

Thanks everyone!!!

I really appreciate your support through all of this. Training was uber-difficult; with good reason too.

Apparently, OJT is world's different than the academy. I can't wait to start! I'm ready for the challenge.

I've been fielding calls from my classmates all day today. I didn't realize how much they cared and how much everyone wanted me to succeed. I am still really touched about that.

Where are they sending you?

Awesome!

I took a small NAS/ATC class here that went over the basics and I must say that is an amazing feat that anyone can do that job. Good Luck with the rest of your career when you make it to your assigned post

Congrats for passing your test. Glad to see that decided to stick to it.

We're a tight bunch in ATC ... you will be spending more holidays, weekends, evenings, etc. with you your ATC brothers and sisters then your own family.

I can see it now... a couple of years you'll be the veteran encouraging someone new to hang in there.

Take care and don't forget ... KNOW YOUR MAP !

Do you still run non-radar in "aero center" ? The strips on the big wooden boards with your partner running the pilot and surrounding positions ???

WELL DONE NEIL - Feel like I have known you for a long time - (Pilot1113 on A.net many moons ago). When you are in Boston let me know, we will grab a beer or something.

exleardriver · October 17th, 2007, 18:51

wow...great, brave-hearted post. you can't imagine how badly i wanted to hear you passed and that you did!

what's happening now? i know this thread is about 7 months old, but it would be worth an update for sure!

DE727UPS · October 18th, 2007, 14:14

That "Aero Center" screening program may very well be why I'm not a controller today, vs being a UPS 757/767 Capt.

I think it all worked out well for you... sometimes things are just meant to be.

PurduePilot · October 24th, 2007, 21:50

I am humbled and touched by your support! I didn't realize I touched someone out there in cyberspace. I guess Jetcareers really is a close-knit community.

Anyways, I have left the ATC field to those more apt to the position. After waking up each morning dreading coming to work for fear I would screw something up and really wishing I was up in a 402, I left for Cape Air.

I really took ATC for the money and benefits, which are outstanding by the way. While some people gripe the pay is low for the position, I didn't really mind it because I had been making instructor pay for the past 2 years. After this past June, I decided to jump back over to the flying side. I sent out resumes to several flight schools and airlines. Since Cape Air has always been where I've wanted to end up, I took a pilot position with them.

Currently, I am in training for Cape Air and I have never had training as intense as this. However, I do find it enjoyable. Now that we're out of the sims and into the airplanes I find it really fun. I can't dream of being any place else!

By the way, a fellow jetcareer member is taking my place! How's that for small world? His name is RABIRZA69.
