Where will you be a year from now

Jayrock · July 24th, 2004, 14:32

One thing I’ve noticed is that there are a lot of different people on the board. Some of us are students, privates, commercial, etc. I was just wondering where everyone is currently at and where they think they’ll be a year from now.

For myself: I’m currently a Private with an Instrument Rating. Getting close to 200 hours. A year from now I’m pretty sure I’ll have my Commercial, CFI, and tail-wheel endorsement. If I’m lucky, I’ll be banner towing and/or instructing. Crosses fingers!!! I’ll also have my AA and transferred to a 4-year university.

What’s your story?

I_Money · July 24th, 2004, 14:41

I will still be infront of my computer logging onto JC -

July 24th, 2004, 14:43

As bad as it sounds, no one here know if they will even be alive in a year.

Doug Taylor · July 24th, 2004, 14:43

In 7/24/05? Telling Kristie, "Aww, come on babe, 36 isn't dead! You're just a 30 year old with six years of practice!"

Yep noone knows, but I plan to be a share owner of an SR22 as long as I stay employed LOL. Hopefully I can instruct on the side too.

P.S. - Don't sound so bleek [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

July 24th, 2004, 15:25

Ok, I plan to solo.

Ecl!pse · July 24th, 2004, 15:27

Well, if this alien story is true, then most of us will be gone. However, there will be a select few of us "chosen ones" who will be used as super computers. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

Seriously, I hope to have soloed, and be working on my cross country stuff. Hopefully over 20 hours (im at 7.2 right now), and be working to get my PPL in 2 years when I turn 17!

kellwolf · July 24th, 2004, 15:35

Hopefully, I'll have my 4 year from Riddle and have finished MAPD waiting on a phone call for an interview. If that doesn't work out, I'll have my CFI ratings and be instructing somewhere.

Jayrock · July 24th, 2004, 15:43

C'mon, some of you can do better than that--this is Jetcareers

One year to solo? Hey, when your ready, right!!! [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

Good job to those that have.

JC1188 · July 24th, 2004, 16:07

I turned 16 July 11th, I was preparing for my solo by going to the airport multiple times a week (just to make sure everything was good), but then disaster struck.

Broken left heel, and 8 bones in my right foot. Needed surgery and had three eight-inch pins inserted in my foot where they currently stick out my toes. They will be pulled out in two weeks.

Next Year? Hopefully getting my PPL and taking my friends for a short flight down to Martha's Vineyard for the day..hopefully.

I_Money · July 24th, 2004, 16:08

My parents wouldn't even give me a car either - I did it by getting a job, saving, and ofcourse some smooth negotiating for performance related bonuses (in flying lessons).
