I've been around since October of 2004...seems crazy now that I think about it. Just finished my Commercial Licence and am off to the wild north of Canada to find work!

Looks like I'm late to the party.  Just been lurking; not really looking too closely at things here. :P

Anyhow, I'm still flying -- in the sim (less often, admittedly), and for real!  Just had my first solo cross country last weekend. :)

I still check in to lurk every few months....been here since '07. I can't ever forget you guys, this place taught me how to write. The discussions, the flights, the infamous flame wars.....good times man, all of em good.

Today, I'm fulfilling my aviation dreams I've had since childhood, the ones which were bolstered and brought to fruition by you good folks. I'm commissioning as a student naval aviator in less than a month and a half, and last summer I was blessed with the opportunity to take a ride in my dream aircraft, the F/A-18 Hornet.

Some fun pictures from last summer:

Clowning around....I couldn't resist.

And here's a neat video too! These things are literally magical, man. The speed, the performance, it's unreal. On our way out from the range they gave me the stick for about ten minutes, and.....everything clicked. I was sold. And now I'm off to naval flight school in Pensacola before the end of the year, and life is just fantastic.

Been here since late '05, though I had a few accounts before this one. My name used to be SnippyDuck from the old Microsoft Zone days. I'm going to college for computer science, and hopefully after I graduate I'll be able to finance my dream of becoming a professional pilot
