I'll go get my water landing stuff and I do need high performance (I have complex already).
I will then get on with Tropic Ocean and start to build time. I do have to see if they require contracts or something. I'm a very hard worker, I believe it will work out.
I did fly glass for a while before my flight review expired in 14 and I haven't flown since, and my last stuff with IFR was on steam gauges and VOR needles back in 2009. I have minimal GPS IFR experience. Maybe 4-5 apporoaches.
I got alot of studying to do to refresh my memory.
I flew with paper. ipads weren't even allowed to be used back then. I believe it will be easier now. that G1000 when I used it made flying so easy.
Sounds good. Just do your due diligence. Tropic is only an option and seems like a good one but I’ve never worked there or had first hand knowledge
