(I see we're still getting the big suite down south. I think it took me 20 minutes to lock all the doors and windows. Too bad it's such a short night, that place would make a great party pad)

Cheers
All valid points. I agree completely. I was trying to show more of the contrast/transition more than anything. But you’re right.

Thanks!

Mover, Love the vids, especially the fini flight live drop, and the final closed pattern "Ah, just one more."
I intend to check out your books soon. #62 on Amazon overall is pretty darn good.

A fellow ALO/CC buddy of mine was an F-14 RIO, got passed over for Regular commish during Tailhook, then went F-111s until that jet went away, then Strike Eagles. "Make 'em tell you no."

Best of luck on Adversary air.

Where does American find these guys.
I wonder if he told American that he really didn't want to be an airline pilot in the interview.
And yet he’s at a major and you’re not. You’re barking up the wrong tree home slice.

All good. I think you sniffed out the best part of the job,

It will allow you to do anything you want. (Except buy beers as FO with me, seen your face on youtube)

Can't be real, he wears his shirt and tie driving to work.

Me? T-shirt and shorts and change in the car. (It's a 3 hr drive!)

Imagine that... he reates a tutorial, puts his makeup on, drinks his coffee and smokes a cigarette, and reads the paper... all while driving. If that’s not multi-tasking... then what is?

But really folks... it appears he trying to provide some form of tutorial for those who are researchining a career as their commitment(s) are approaching an end.

“I’m going to Colombia.....in Cali.”

Stopped watching after that.
