The unearthing of a childhood dream to sore in the skies. Documenting my path to happiness and hopefully the return into the heart of the one I love. At age 37 I am attempting to realize a 30 year old want to become a professional pilot. In a few month I intend to climb into a flying machine as pilot in command and rise into the solitude of the clear blue sky. I intend to return from this flight as pilot in command of my life and to share it with the one that I love...

APPROVED!
I finally received an approval and am able to continue on my quest. I am so happy to go on with this great group of cohorts and friends. The camaraderie and friendships are one of the reasons I wanted to become a pilot, it is like having a bunch of brothers united by a common love for aviation. While I am happy to be at this stage I am also somewhat disappointed by the lack of assistance I received from my school. It appears that I can not make them understand their role in the process and the responsibilities that are theirs. I still hope to make a difference for future students and to draw attention to the issues surrounding aviation training funding. I am also worried that our tax dollars are not being spent in a sensible manner, but I need to look into this more before I can form a valid opinion. Anyway, I am happy to continue without delay. Flying blind is the motto for this semester - aka Instrument Flight Rules. I look forward to flying the R44 and sporting some fashionable foggles!
