Another Long Over Due Update…

Hey everyone who actually still reads this blog or checks for a new posting every once and a while. Here is another long over due update on my life. I swear some day I will get better at updating this thing more often but at the moment that looks very unlikely to happen.

I started flying the T-6 here at Vance about two months ago. I got airsick on my first couple of flights but loved every minute of flying. However, that being said apparently I am not very good at my basic aircraft control and composite cross-check and am currently facing elimination from pilot training. I have one more meeting sometime next week to try and convince those in charge to give me two more flights to try and improve my composite cross-check and basic aircraft control and be safe to solo the aircraft. I don’t want to get kicked out of pilot training but at the moment it seems very likely. The amazing thing is that though this situation stinks to say the least. I really have realized how much I’ve been able to trust God. I am not and really have not question God as to why this is happening to me because I know that he is in control and that no matter what happens he has a better plan for me one that will I can’t even begin to imagine. The only things I have been asking which still show areas in which I am not trusting God (I don’t even know if that is the right thing) is where and what does he want me to do if I do get eliminated. I do have to admit that it is hard at the moment to realize that in my human perspective my life long dream of being a pilot is dying yet I am excited to see what the Lord has in store for me. I have my last meeting to determine if I stay in pilot training this afternoon.
