Sorry, I been sick...


Wow, we've been busy the last few days. A sim on Monday (more checklists) plus a test (almost everyone did fine, one fail again but passed the 2nd time). We then started a new section, Flying Fundamentals. It's all about how to fly a pattern, approaches, landings, etc... There's actually a ton of different stuff involved so it's supposed to be one of the harder tests. The test is actually tomorrow afternoon, after another sim mission.

And on top of all this, my head has felt like it was going to explode since Monday. I guess this "crud" is now considered an epidemic in Oklahoma. Hacking and coughing, chills, congestion, sinus pain, I've got it all. I'm just counting myself lucky I don't have any stomach symptoms! I saw the flight doc today and he DNIF'd me, but I don't hit the flightline for a few weeks, so no biggie. I'm glad he didn't put me on quarters (I asked him not to) or else I would have had to roll back a class. I really like my class now, so I don't want that!

I got almost 12 hours of sleep last light and plan on getting the same tonight. Hopefully it'll help!!

Hopfully you guys down in OK don't have what's going around in central IL. Most of my city has the same sickness with the same symptoms you mentioned. I was out of work for a week, ok for the next, and now I'm on week 3 and feel like I'm dieing!

...sure hope I didn't just curse you. :salut:

My wife was out of it 2 weeks ago, was fine last week, and now is back to dieing! I know one flight in phase II that 3 of their IPs are down for the count and another couple of students! I guess if I'm the first in my flight to get it, and it's before the flightline, then I'll be fine when it's time to fly and the rest of my flight will be down for the count!!

OK, I guess it's not very nice to wish that on my flightmates... in fact, I wouldn't wish this stuff on my worst enemy (well... maybe Hillary)!
