Re: WOW!!!
Congratulations on the 2,000 hrs, Bert. I'm working toward that one, too.

Re: WOW!!!
Congrats Bert on the 2,000 hr mark. That's amazing. I'm still trying to reach the 1,000 hr mark but haven't accomplished that yet either. With a full time job, wife and kids at home with afterschool activities it doesn't leave much freetime to sit down and do a flight so I don't get to fly as much as I would like to.

Re: WOW!!!
Congratulations Bert, I am still trying to get to the 1,000 mark. That's a nice new 757, I didn't think we had any new ones, I thought most of ours were slightly broken and beat up.
Great going mate.

You could use the same one the rest of us used. It's been cleaned out and ready for a new victim .... errr, pilot, that is.Norberto Rivera wrote:HA!
