Not Long to Go..

Having finished more tests on Friday I have had the weekend off. This has meant a bit of a tidy up of lots of old notes, etc.

Here begins the last leg of grounschool before being dispatched to the States for the eagerly awaited flight training.

I have my Interview at the US Embassy this Friday also, which will mean a nice break in London over the weekend..

Familiar Faces..

Here are some of the featured characters mentioned in the Blog..

The Skipper
- The Top Brass of the Academy. A man of experience and standing.

The Colonel
- An old ex-RAF with impecable RP and a Hugh Grant stutter. A very grandfather-like character.

The Chief
- A portly, well spoken retired-RAF with a deep bellowing voice that commands power; a man with gravitas.

The Navigator
- An older Ex-RAF Navigator with friends in very high places. Royalty amongst the school. With jokes like your friends' dads would say, but funnier.

The Squadron Leader
- A veteran pilot with as many anecdotes as years to his name. His stress and drinking problems provide an edgy humour.

The Tiger
- An ex-RAF Flight Engineer with a very good sense of humour and a desire to be in Panto.

Mr Pilot
- A true pilot in every sense of the word; only interested in things that are of use in the cockpit, "The pilot stuff, not that science crap". Tall, cynical, with few words and doesn't suffer fools.

The Weatherman
- A young experienced pilot with a foul mouth and a fast talking East End manner.

The Illusionist
- A (relatively) young, chipper ex-RAF pilot, with a good sense of humour, a northern upbringing and a lot of energy.

Headhunter
- A mid-twenties career man, with a yearning to fly. One of my fellow cadets.
