The Coolest Job In The World!

This week was somewhat slow due to bad weather, but overall is was good. I was able to get my studying done during the day so that I had time to hit the gym and get enough sleep. I flew once on Thursday, and it was sweet as usual. The dollar I made up for Mr. Marlin for my first flight is below...T-37's and then T-38's baby!


Thursday when I did get a chance to fly the weather was great! I was also able to have another classmate come along and take some pics of how the whole process works from getting my chute in life support through getting in the jet. Basically, I pick up my chute and helmet with my IP, jump in the crew bus for a ride to the jet, do my walk around, jump in and I'm off. Of course it's a little more detailed than that but you get the point.

I hope this next week is a little more consistent as far as the flying goes...I've had three rides, but it was about a week in between my second and third. It's hard to get and stay proficient at flying the Tweet if there's so much time in between.

This next week we start back to the academics with the Advanced Instruments course. That adds a little more work to the pile, so making the most of my time will be even more important. Speaking of that, it may be more like 2-3 weeks in between my updating the site. The next big step for me will be my solo ride in a few weeks, so that will definitely be something to write about along with how I do on the checkrides as time goes by. Well, I guess that's about it for this post. Thanks for the emails and all some of you guys send. Check six!
