I'll have to try to get over for the airshow in Iowa City next Summer

Eric, pick me up at KOSU and I will split the costs with you.


Hey -- not to change the subject, but -- what's the latest with our
"little French girl"?

Perhaps she'd like to fly the Kiwi, too?


She spent Thanksgiving with our family.
She flew in around Noon on Friday. We picked her up at 12:30 PM and
dropped her off around 6:00 PM. She departed around 7:00 AM Saturday
morning.
She now has 300 hours in the ERJ 145. She has a line for the month of
December. This means she will fly the same route the entire month.
She is still enjoying it. She was trying to figure out how to take a
printer back with her.
We passed the afternoon discussing her airline life of the past six
months. American Eagle is having difficulty finding prospective pilots
to fill their classes. Upgrade time from FO to Captain is reported to be
eight years.
