Just picked up my student, working towards a private. Been doing most of it in a Tomahawk, but the school just picked up a Diamond Eclipse and rent it out at a great price, so I'm switching over. I'd keep going for instrument, but by the time I wrap up the private I should know where the FAA's going to send me, and I don't have any desire to hang around here any longer than I have to.

Uh, plus, I'm out of money, so... yeah.

I have about 220TT, 35 multi. Started in a 172 for private and instrument, then SR-20 for comm-single and Pa-44 for comm-multi. Bout halfway done with CFI right now and will do CFII after that. My school just got put into the CTI schools on my last semmester and I found out I only needed to take one more class to be considered a CTI-Grad, so I jumped on that since being a pro pilot isn't looking so hot right now...Kind of feel like a threw away a lot of money, but I still love flying and hopefully will be able to instruct a little or at least give some BFRs if the ATC thing works out...or just rent occassionally.
