chopperman Posted May 22, 2008 Report Posted May 22, 2008 Congrats Cole, Have fun and be safe. Todd Quote
Cole Posted May 23, 2008 Author Report Posted May 23, 2008 Thanks Todd, Sorry I didn't reply to your last email, I've been busy trying to tie up loose ends here. It's all still setting in, but I'm really excited to get my start as a pilot! Cheers. Cole Quote
EC-130 Posted May 24, 2008 Report Posted May 24, 2008 This might be a stupid question, but will you actually be flying, or helping out around the hangar for the first year? Quote
sirlandsalot Posted May 26, 2008 Report Posted May 26, 2008 He will more than likely do what ever it is that has to be done! and that will include flying as well. You can't draw a line in the dirt between flying and the hanger..we all work in the hanger when we are not flying. If a person works well they could be flying in a week or a month. Quote
Cole Posted May 26, 2008 Author Report Posted May 26, 2008 Well put Sirlandsalot, VIH's lowtime pilot program is very respectable. I'm to the point now where flying for a living is just around the corner, it's a great thought! The way I see it, if I fly until I'm 65, I'll have 50 years of flight under my belt, spending some time on the ground is nothing in the big picture. Cheers. Cole Quote

Cole Posted May 28, 2008 Author Report Posted May 28, 2008 Thanks Shane, I try to make a point of returning every email someone takes the time to send, but the last couple weeks have been very busy. Getting very close to heading north. I'm really happy with the way things are unfolding so far. Cheers. Cole Quote
