Default Hi!

Hi folks Enjoyed browsing around the site, and decided to join. I'm working on getting my ppl at the local FBO. Tired of being an engineer, and thinking about retiring early to a more fun job. For now, just enjoying flying lessons.

I know the place! I've flown over Prospect Harbor out of BHB before. I got my private at PWM...

I miss it terribly. I really hope you get the chance the take the kids up there... that would be an awesome trip.

Nope, we don't have to get ready for another week yet. I was wondering how well the heater works in the Warrior.

Welcome to JC Beckyanne!
Thanks for the welcome. Just thought I'd point out that cougars are hunters, not scavangers.

I'm a ChemE. I specialized in fluid mechanics, but now work mostly in plastics processing. I did do some work on making fiber composite adhesives for aerospace (glueing together airplane parts).

My CFI went to college and studied flying! That sounds very cool.
