Well, 1st Lt Jerry Horn and myself will be leaving shortly for the airport to catch a flight to Indiana for a wonderful two weeks of NESA. See y'all when we get back. :)
Yea, thanks for sharing the "I'm up early" wealth... ::)
I know your probably at the air port and in NESA already, but i wanted to wish you luck on the plane ride down and at NESA.
So how was NESA? :)
It was Outstanding, I wish I was back there right now. :)
What did you guys get ratings in while you were there?
heh, we were staff. The first week I staffed the Basic NGSAR School, which got people GTM Level 3. The second week I staffed the Team Leader Course, which got people GTL. :)
Very nice. Sounds like a good time. Next year, if I can get the time off from work, I'd like to go to NESA MAS and get my Observer rating finally worked out. It's almost impossible to do it on your own, locally, without any help. :)
That's what I did and for the same reason. It's tough to get the Observer rating done in any reasonable time locally. In MAS we had some classroom and then flying 4 hours a day. Fun!

But do signup early. There was a waiting list the size of the class!

ahh i see... nice glasses and alot of people
Heh, double that ammount of people, and add the people in the picture above (the aircrew bums), and you've got the true number of people at NESA this year. I think it was the smallest NESA I've ever been too (6 years of NESA), 'course that probably had to due with it being so early this year. Hopefully it'll go back to the normal time next year. :)
