Congrats Desmon !!! .... you have invested yourself heavily in aviation and gyros ... I am talking investments of the heart and passion .... probably cost you a few dollars too .... but dollars can be found anywhere , guys like you dont come by every day ... thanks for openly sharing all your knowledge with us , and your stickler for safety.
I hope your new Airline gig pays you a lot more than you are worth (smile) , and hope you get lots of free time to teach us things we may never have thought of !!!! Love 'ya man , and thanks . PTL |

All I can say is thanks guys. This year has been a challenging but good year for me and my family. Airline jobs do not pay well starting out. About food stamp level. However I can still fly and train in gyro. This summer I managed to fly about 100 hrs in gyro in 5 states. Assisted building and correcting 3 builds. Test flown five machines.
Then still somehow pulled off finishing my ATP. I should be able to fly and train about 3 or more days per week in gyro. The good news is I just about fly anyplace for free. My next goal is to get my gyro sold so I can buy a titanium one. You do not have the required permissions to view the files attached to this post. |

Congratulations.
ATP is the doctorate of aviation. That's why I stayed a nurse!  All my respect Desmon. I have started my ATP right after my instrument rating but quickly realized I was never going to use it. But I did get a good idea about all the questions that were mostly related to airplanes and not Helicopters. Congratulations. It is a big deal!!!  _________________  A walk in the woods helps me relax and release tension. The fact that I am dragging a body should be entirely irrelevant! A simple thank you would have been enough for the morning coffee without all that "how did you get in here" nonsense. |

Why would you want to fly all couped up, point to point, at high altitude?
When you have been flying low, open, barnstorming hay fields... Yeah I know there is always that, gotta eat thing...... Congrats!! will you be flying for American Eagle? _________________ It's never too late to be a bad example. I spent all my money on Bikes, Broads, and Booze, the rest I wasted. |

You know I did not hear to much about the ken Brock fly in. Lots of people might be over there. But thanks for all the kind words.
I will be flying for both American and United. I will still be doing plenty of gyro stuff. |
