Nice work. Did you go from Jet F.O. to the left seat in the EMB? If so, did you have any prior turbo prop exp.?

Dood, please don't say "bike" around me. It makes me depressed. I have been living the celibate life and on the road too much (I have been dating my bike for years. She is a great companion, never complains and always up for a ride.) My carbon darling is hanging upside down from the storage unit rafters. I've managed to get out on my folding cross bike a bit (I'm cheating on the carbon darling too. Don't tell anyone. I'm thinking of becoming Mormon so I can have both!)

I'm in the middle of IOE and then me, my VW Westy, all my bikes, and all mountain gear, are heading the FAT to be close to the Sierra's for the summer. In the meantime, I'm developing plantar faciitis from running too much.

I made it through training in three years to the day of joining SKYW. I flew the Brasilia for the first 18 mo. and then the jet for the following amount of time. Since I SKYW will not allow upgrades before 2500TT, and I was on reserve only logging minimal hours for the first year, I couldn't apply for the Left Seat until last fall. My total time now is 2960 and it seems like I am barely ready. But I made it! Up or out, I guess I'm up!

Hmmmm. Someone is forgeting his roots.

Congrats again Ophir. Cali is more fun to fly in the summer than SLC. Less thunderstorms, microbursts etc etc. Saaayyy, I could use a change of scenery. Maybe I'll transfer back there for a few months.

Uuuhhhh. . . . We really, really need to find you a woman. I bet you talk to your bike too. (Of course I caught myself talking to the Brasilia once in a while.)

I certainly know what its like to go awhile without riding. Drives me mad! Hope you get out soon and get to play!
