Default DONE (ish)!!!!

Just a quick note to let you kids know:

Finished the II/MEI this past week!

So....only the ATP to go....and I've still got - OOOOHHHH - 1200 hours before I have to worry about that. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img] [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

I'll do up the "gouge" in a couple of days.

Thanks, ya'll! Took me 2.5 years working full time and flying an average of 2 to 3 times a week - all Part 61.

Believe me - if I can do this - anyone can. Just be persistant. Keep you eyes on the short-term goal (soloing, solo x/c, PPL, Instrument Rating...etc., etc., etc...) while occaisionally putting yourself in a position to achieve your long-term goals..

...i.e., NETWORK, NETWORK, NETWORK!!!!..

....and you'll get there too.

It'll be frustrating at times... you may even consider quitting.... I did... but don't. Stick to it. Keep that head down and bull-rush your goal and before you know it... you too will be a broke CFI with no students sitting on the FBO couch watching other guys go fly.

Obviously, I won't be as active on the boards. We don't have access to the WWW at our FBO, so..... I will be around. Just not as much.

Don't want to steal the thread, but I've been in the midst of a job change, Tony, so haven't been online much. I was out of town for a few days, then my last week at my previous company was just absolutely nuts. I'm on my 3rd day in my new position (marketing coordinator for an architecture firm) and have been enduring orientation, getting to know the system, etc.

I'm still here!
