Busy

It's been a while since my latest update. I got a couple of hours solo under my belt now ! Feeling good and taking one of the helicopters out for regular trips around the airport (circuits) and some low level hovering work. One certainly has a feel for responsibility taking that expensive piece of work around. I'm learning to keep my eyes moving, looking for traffic and talking to the tower. Cool stuff.

Other than that I'm studying every day, trying to learn as much as I can (but thoroughly) every day.

A bunch of students (me included) are helping out at a local helicopter company's Christmas party this Saturday. We'll be giving briefings to passengers, guiding cars around in the parking lot and cleaning up the kitchen. It'll be an interesting learning experience for sure. A good way to make contacts in the industry too. Anyway, very promising stuff.

Will try to get those pictures uploaded, I haven't been able to yet, but I will shortly.

Goed hé maat, ik ben er vrij zeker van dat uwe naam vlug zal circuleren binnen het 'milieu' hoor. It doesn't take much for one to see the capabilities you harbour!
Ik hoop dat ge u op dat feestje ook wat hebt kunnen ontspannen of is de lijn tussen work and play zo goed als onbestaande daar?
Hier gaat alles nog steeds zijn gewone gangetje...
Greets!
