Although I wanted to get my PPL in September, I’m still on track to get my CPL by this time next year (2008). I’ve met a lot of interesting people along the way so far and plan on keeping those relationships throughout my flying career. Things are only getting started!

I would like to mention a great blog that I have been reading for the past few months. “Flyin Dutchman” posts some excellent photos of his trips across Canada. He really has a knack for showing off the Canadian Landscape and his appreciation for flying in Canada is a common theme throughout his writings. Some of my favorite posts include:

Canadian Shield

Sunset In Dorval

KJGG Williamsburg Airport

In 2007 I can look forward to getting my IFR and Multi-Engine ratings, finishing up ground school, and working on getting my CPL. Let’s just prey that the weather this summer was as good as last for Flying.

  1. Dude!
    Good luck with the flight test.
    Word of advice (from experience): When you do your forced approach you are PIC until the abort is called. If you Flight Examiner askes you to divert to a different field, assure him/her everything is fine. Flunked my first one on that mistake.
    May you have favourable tailwinds.
