so i may well finish up my private pilot's license here. that would be splendid, to say the least. while the 141 program is a federal program and transferable to any locale, the process of transferring is a pain--it requires getting to know a new instructor who has to evaluate your skills for themselves--they cannot take the word of another instructor at another school because it puts their own license in jeopardy to do so. when you go before an FAA examiner, you have the endorsement of your instructor saying that you have the skills necessary to breeze through the practical so to avoid potential embarrassment, an instructor in rock hill would have to take some time to review my skills with me and as we all know, time is money. i am mere lessons away from my practical--we are talking early next week for this intensely stressful sphincter-tightening experience. what would be cool is f ii could wrap this private pilot's license up early next week, get a tail-wheel and mt endorsement right before alaska and then get a sea plane rating while in alaska...WOW, i would be all kinds of impressed with myself.
tonight is free salsa lessons at bacchus pub and before that, i'm eating at the BEST italian restaurant this side of napoli--damasco's!!!...i will say again, dave andrade, BETTER THAN PORTOFINO'S--hands down, no contest!
