It's Official!

I bought my plane ticket last night! I'm flying in to see my cute wife dance in her last UVSC Ballroom concert. I am so excited to come home for a weekend and spend as much time as possible with her. The other official thing is that I completed my "Pilot Safety Course" at Robinson helicopters and I am ready to start flying full time again on Monday. The course was amazing and I really loved learning so much about the aircraft that I'll be teaching people to fly. In case you were ever wondering what an "Autorotation" (simulated engine failure in a helicopter) looks like. I have posted a video just for fun...



(This is NOT me flying... I just wanted to show what it looks like so I got this on youtube)

I'm so happy for you -- both that you get to come home and for completing yet another part of schooling! We have all missed you and will be glad to see you as well as watch Giselle in her last concert!

Yay! My baby is coming home!!!! Babe...I think you should post a view from OUTSIDE the helicopter...that auto doesn't really look very scary, when in fact you are falling like a ton of bricks from the sky with no engine!!!!
