Congrats Again new MEI

desertdog71 · October 3rd, 2006, 20:12

Congrats to Radley (getrad) for passing his MEI as initial checkride.

Now I expect a full gouge on the ride since mine is coming up on the 24th.

Thanks Van! You should have been there on the ride back to MCI, we caught a REGIONAL JET on final, in the twinkie! Pretty sweet when you have to be told to slow down so you don't catch up to one of those shiney new jets. Well, I can't say enough good things about the program down there in Chanute.

Cheers

Now that's just funny.

The last 2 are not members but they have been encouraged to join, so I hope they do.

You should make it a requirement before their last sign off for their checkrides!

Hey Radley, it's a little late but congrats on the MEI! What are you plannin' on doing now?

getrad · October 9th, 2006, 10:13

Thanks Austin, You been doing much flying? I know my first couple trips as a private pilot were, uh, perhaps a bit "interesting". Well, Just finishing up my Single-Engine Add-on stuff. I am sort of in a hurry to get it done because I have a prospective buyer for the share in my Airplane!!! It is pretty much a done deal, but I might have promised him a Flight Review in the purchace price.

Cheers.

I rescheduled my CMEL ride, so I am right after you on Thursday. I will probably see you up there.

getrad · October 9th, 2006, 12:24

Yeah, the weather is looking way better for Thursday (they had snow in the forecast when I checked yesterday!!!!) Anywho, I promised Rob a copy of those color diagrams, and some other Twin Comanche specific stuff I wrote up for the MEI, so I'll bring it along for you guys. See you then.

Haha, creative marketing. Good luck with selling your share. I've been doing a little flying. Not as much as I'd like to though. I'm trying to find a college with a flying club or something like that where I can fly for cheap. The flights I've been doing have been uneventful. Next week I'm flying a friend to Boise so he can get some lunch with his girlfriend. The life of a pilot begins...sitting around airports waiting for your passengers....except I don't get paid, haha. I think they're gonna let me tag along though, they better.
