I missed the Oranges, Lemons and Limes thing, but I think I have come up with a plan of attack.

After thinking about this for a long time, I think what I want to do is this.

First, I am going to do a tailwheel endorsement and some aerobatics in a Decathalon. There are a couple of reasons for it, but one is because there are a lot of really cool tailwheel aircraft that I would love to be able to fly and currently can't.

Second, some time this summer I am going to go down to Florida and do an ATP SEL and SES at the same time. I have always wanted to do the Seaplane thing, and since I am already an ATP and very instrument current, doing the seaplane ATP is no big deal.

Third, at the end of this year or some time next year I am going to get the ATP MES rating. My wife and I have talked about moving to the Islands for a couple of years and flying for an Island hopper like Seaborne. Having ATP SEL, SES, MEL and MES, as well as instructor ratings, will give me some flexibility when that time comes. My youngest graduates in 2 years, then we are off!

Whatcha think?
