That’s awesome. Glad she’s ok and got right back up on the horse. Did they ever confirm the first plane was low on oil or did they figure out something else caused the failure?

She’s at 160 hours now and working on her Instrument rating, going to be doing the next check ride soon. She’s a Ground School Instructor and has done some of that for the other kids in the local flight club.

No...if she's smart she'll go Guard or Reserve and know exactly what platform she'll be flying when she returns to her unit after training. Worked well for me...all I wanted to do was CAS and I got hired at an A-10 unit. |

She' leaning towards ANG; I have a friend who just made 1-star General- (he's flown C130's and Apache's in the Guard) and he's going to mentor her, so I couldn't ask for more than that. |

One of my guys at work is giving up his 1st Lt comission to take a warrant spot flying rotary. He was stoked to do it so he could fly, and said it was the best way to go right now. |

I can’t remember what his MOS was but it was super mundane stuff on supply side for artillery I think. He mentioned it, and other issues, and I said “you are dork if you don’t take that”. |
