Our first day of academics in blues.
We started off with an intro to T-6 Systems. One of the blue suit instructors (contractor) gave us a Powerpoint listing all the various systems of the T-6, hydraulics, oil, the engine, environmental control, etc. Then they took us outside to get an up-close look at the aircraft. It felt like I was actually getting ready to do something. A thought I had: They're not just taking me on a walkaround as a complimentary tour. They're showing me, because I'm going to fly it. More CAIs followed.
Ate lunch at the Hibiscus.
More CAIs.
Went for a 5k run in my Fivefingers.
Skyped w/ Dave and Jarrod. Just like the old times. They're ready to graduate yesterday.
Our class patch was approved (as seen on right).
LOVE your thought!
ReplyDeleteWhat are Fivefingers?
Did Jarrod & Mrs. Jarrod set a date yet?
Who designed the patch? What's "Enjjpt"? And what's the importance of 11-03?
Dan designed the patch. The 11-03 is our class number (Graduating FY2011, class #3). ENJJPT is the program I'm in, Euro-Nato Joint Jet Pilot Training.
