This afternoon I am on my way to another adventure. My flight training begins out of New York on Monday, June 7th to Athens… but I am taking the detoured route.
Tonight I head East and tomorrow I am observing a friend’s checkride. Since I will have been away from the plane for 30 days, from simulator check to aircraft, he has offered to allow me to sit in on his ride and play the augmented crew.
What this means is…
I will get my mind and body back into the flight deck, watch an expert fly, and relearn what all those buttons do. After his ride, then the seat support pilot is going to stay and fly with me so I can snag a couple landings. I need to refortify that picture for the visualization process.
After we fly… Friday afternoon I head on down to Tulsa to meet literary agent Donald Maass, author of Writing the Breakout Novel, to pitch my novel: Flight for Control. Wish me luck!
I will only be able to attend half of William Bernhardt’s weekend writing seminar as Sunday I am on the move to New York, via Detroit, to fly the Princess.
Tomorrow:
Friday’s Fabulous Flyer: Timothy Elwood.
Drop by and give him your advice and suggestions!
