Default The Next Step . . .

Well, one or two of you may already know this, but I haven't made much of a public announcement before now. This coming Monday, unless something very strange happens in The Universe, I'll be starting training at Flight Express!! I'm pretty excited about it, and a little bit nervous. It's always humbling to swap seats in a new aircraft and new setting, flying by a different set of rules.

Although I really love Flight Instructing (and hope to be able to do lots of it in the future), I think it's time for me to leave. I have a couple of reasons, and I'm sure I'll share some of them in the future!

I'm looking forward to the challenges, and the ability to wake up late in the morning and actually watch Judging Amy every day!!

Just be sure to block out 10/26-10/28 for NJC. That is of course if they let you.

Thanks, guys!

Oh, I'm going to NJC!!! If I have to get a doctor's note saying that I have the Bird Flu, I'm going! (And I've trained enough doctors to make it happen . . . ).

Congrats Lloyd, that is awesome! Welcome to the club!

I think you'll really enjoy it...


And if you really miss instructing that bad, you can always become a company instructor!

I've seen'em on climbto350 a few times, but I think they required 135-243 minimums, something I don't have yet... seems like they get real busy with those barons. Hope it all works out for ya!!!
