Again...good to hear an update. Sounds like your class is having its dificulties. By "flying stuff" do you mean they are hooking rides? WOW! Do I hear you right in that your new job requires 2 years training? What does the traing involve? If so, that is a long time. What kind of casual duty do you think you will be doing for the next 2-3 months? Sorry for all the questions...just interested. Best of luck.

Yeah, they've been hooking 89 rides for the little stuff that will hook you immediately: basically safety of flight stuff. They are not unsafe inherently, just getting slow on final and things like that.

Yep, 2 years. I think it's mainly air traffic control stuff...not positive, though. I'm sure there's some airfield management stuff in there somewhere, but as soon as I find out, i'll let ya know!

For casual duties, last week I got to shred some paper; today and tomorrow I get to sell tickets for a BBQ going on downtown on saturday. Probably mundane stuff usually, i'm actually hoping that if they put me to work that i'll get to work the RSU or something worthwhile.
