Post subject: What's EXOS up to?

Ok, time for an update on the Wild Sau from Quebec :

I have 10 hours of flight on a Cessna 152 to date. Everything is going great. I should be flying solo soon. Doing circuits and emergency procedures right now. Next is navigation and instruments. I'll take my written exam from Transports Canada soon too.

I've signed up for an intensive course to become an aeroplane mechanic. The course begins in June, and there will be interviews and tests in May, so I'm not in yet. It's a 1 1/2 year thing. In the meantine, I've also began a Physics course, wich is a prerequisite for the mechanic course, that I did not complete in high school. The mechanic course leads to a liscence from Transports Canada to operate as a plane/helo mechanic after 4 years of experience. I'll already have 18 months experience at the end of the course, they credit it.

So that'll be my 4th or 5th career now... Smile

not counting "father at home", from wich I'll be taking my retirement soon.

Keep it up Exos. Just a little advice. Don't wait to long between lessons, because you will get a little rusty and usually have to spend more time reviewing your last flight. In the long run it will take you longer to get the ticket...

I'll get to work on some pages out of my Dads log book and post them later. thanks for the interest Smile
