Back to school

17 04 2008

That was easy. I made a few calls and it’s almost set. I am awaiting a small prospectus in email and I will be good to go. I will elaborate:

I am saying goodbye to the lucrative industry of Information Technology and getting my head stuck up in the clouds by joining the not so lucrative industry of Commercial Piloting. In order to do that I have to go back to school. It’s study time again for Hoox. I have a few months of “ground school” to take care of and since my club where I attained my PPL (Algoa Flying Club) is fully booked until next year, I am having to go elsewhere to do my training. This is not a bad thing all together because it gives me time and experience in another location. NICE!

I am not needing to spend a lot of time calling around for schools or places open with availability since the place I was recommended to call by Algoa has space and the timing is almost PERFECT. They have openings in July and September. Hopefully, if all things work out according to plan, pretty soon I will be joining the Central Flying Academy in Midrand, Johannesburg.

Only pilots or enthusiasts will know what I mean when I say: They also have C172’s that I am type rated on which I can hire to fly and gain valuable “hot and high” experience. For those non-pilots or non-enthusiasts: It’s all good!

Yes I may be jumping the gun a little since they haven’t even sent me the details yet but I am super excited and had to tell the world. Things can change.

Achtung Baby, Hoox is back in town. Soon!
