I got the call today that I've been waiting to get for the last 4 years, 10 months, and 9 days.....from the Chief Psychiatrist of the FAA. I'm being medically certified to pursue a career as a professional pilot...what I affectionately call "Heavy Equipment Operator training"...because that's basically what it is. LOL! My immediate family already knows.

It's been a long road. And now the real work starts. HIMS program is being constructed for me by HIMS AME that will sponsor me and I have to see an agency referred therapist for 6 months. Therapy & flight training will be concurrent.

I just wanna thank a few people:

HSLD, Freight Dawg, rickair777, SkyHigh, 11Fan; Cubdriver; Diver Driver; USMCFLYR, LAFrequentflyer; ctd57; tomgoodman; Ewfflyer, HercDriver130, DYNASTY HVY, Vagabond and yes...even RedEyeAv8r.

Thanks for all the silent prayers and support!

I can't type anymore. My eyes are clouding up.

Respectfully,

Marcus
