|  Goodbye ground, hello Sim!
Well, got done with my Oral at PSA this morning. It went great, and now I am sitting back in Indiana at the inlaws wait to go home to FL this weekend! 4 weeks in a hotel was interesting (good prep) but all in all no complaints. PSA so far is a great company and has an amazing training department. Show motivation and initiative and they will give you all you need to succeed. Made a lot of new friends and really enjoyed my time at ground. Now I get a month and a half paid vacation while I wait to go to sims in Montreal on April 19th. I know it sounds opposite to what many say now adays about their company, and I know I just got here, but I am daggone happy to be with PSA. I guess we'll see how I feel after sims! Good to be posting again  !

You guys do your oral before even starting the sim? Interesting. Where do they put you guys up? We stay in pineville, it's quite a drive.

Ah, used to stay there, but now that we are "competing to win" the almighty dollar has won.

Congrats! The "hard" part is over with! PSA prepared us VERY well for the sims. Every session, including the checkride, was actually fun!
