Wow!!! Here we go again. You know, at first I wasn't gonna post anything, but then I decided that maybe I should.

First, let me say that my heart just sanked when I saw this morning. Hearing that two more aviators were lost really cut me to the core. Although, I didn't know them personally, again it feels as though I've lost a close family member or a really close friend. It doesn't matter what level of flying, something like this always hits home.

I guess what I'm trying to say is that I try to live my life today to make it count. It can be taken from me in an instant. To say that I'm not concerned or scared that something like this might happen to me is ridiculous. I am scared; however, I believe and am resolved in being diligent in appointed service in my training just as I'm sure these two young people were.

I prayed this morning for them, their respective families and those at Delta Conncetion Academy. I prayed for all who everyday, climb into the cockpit of an aircraft, and strap it on and do what they have been called to do.

May light perpetual shine upon them and they see blue skies forever.
