My First Jet Job

Well I’ve had a really hectic last few days. I’ve had to tie some things up at work, move out of my apartment, clean the dirthole, and study for initial. Needless to say, I was pretty stressed out, which turned out to be a blessing.

I arrived in Wichita at 1 am today and class started at 7:30. I got checked into my hotel and I couldn’t sleep. Something about driving for 12 hours makes me wound up. Finally got to bed around 3 am and what do you know, a thunderstorm wakes me up at 6 and takes the power out. I had to get ready for one of my biggest days in my life with no power. On top of that, no razor. Lets just say I wasn’t looking my best today.

At this point, I’m thinking can I catch a break. After the first day, I feel good. I’ve had so much on my plate lately it felt great to just worry about one thing, flying!

I just got a workout in and studied some of the stuff we went over today to refresh my memory. We went over lighting, master caution and warning systems, electrical, and some avionics stuff. That took about 8 hours and then for another two hours tonight I did a Windshear class. Boy do I have a newfound respect for that stuff.

Well till tomorrow….
