Weapons School Spin-up

Since returning from Las Vegas, I have starting my Weapons School spin-up program. In the months leading up to the 5 July start date at Weapons School, I will be flying a number of flights and simulators to help shake off the "rust" so I'm as ready as possible for the course. I have had a series of academics from current "patches" and had three spin-up flights. They've gone alright, but still room to improve!

Around the middle of May three pilots, who will be classmates of mine this fall, will fly here to Shaw for a week in the simulators. We'll fly 15 simulators over the course of a week, where we can get multiple repetitions in specific air-to-air and air-to-ground missions the F-16 is capable of...repetition is key to building good "habit" patterns in the air.As part of the spin-up, I've also been updating / re-doing my flight briefing guides. Sometimes I'm on the computer a little too long, and I'm kindly reminded of this by Lana or when Liam pulls his way up my leg and wants to play! It's a busy, but exciting time in my Air Force career...God is good and I constantly have to remind myself to have faith in His direction towards Weapons School.
