    BACK IN THE SADDLE AGAIN!!!


    After 11 months and 357 days of unemployment, I have accepted a great flying job right here in my home town of MCO!!!

    Hawker PIC

    Actually had to chose between two offers, both good companies. It wasnt easy!

    Thanks to all for the support and help, I couldnt have made it through this difficult time without you.

    See you back in the air.

    In the last few months I have had the chance to land in close to white out conditions, fly the pipe down to mins, land with pretty heafty winds and have some pretty intersting mx issues. Beside the crazy schedule(no time off), I must say its GREAT being employed again abnd is actually enjoyable flying. Congrats and you will feel like your an FNG again and its fun all over again!!!

    Another sign of the coming hiring boom in 2012, congrats. Pretty soon soon will be leaving not so good jobs for better jobs, that will accelerate the hiring.
