The Aspiring Pilot

Thanks for a tip!

Big shout-out and THANK YOU to Michael T. from the UK for being the first to provide a tip in my tip jar! Just a few hundred/thousand more and I'll have enough funds to get my CFI rating! Still, great to know someone like my blog enough to donate and not just click on the ads. Thanks again Michael! Here's my hopes for you achieving your dream of becoming a pilot as well! 

Flight for Control author and Aviation Universe come together for a book signing tomorrow!

Okay, I apologize about the constant extended absences. You can thank a broken laptop, coaching two soccer teams, working extra shifts at the firehouse and well, I was left with little time for writing! I'm back, and I plan on writing much more. I missed the Rockford Airfest and will probably miss AirVenture this year as well.

In the meantime, you can get a quick fill of your aviation needs (along with me) at Aviation Universe tomorrow in Bensenville, IL. See my prior post about their grand opening only  a few months ago. Once again, Lora has brought a great event together for the area aviation enthusiasts. This time, it's an internet acquantance of mine who happened to have written a book recently. A great book at that! I'm talking about 'Flight for Control,' an amazing aviation thriller (for adult readers!) that had me at the edge of my seat and was hard to put down. I had the book done in only a few days of reading.

If you'll be there, look for me as well, I'll be there!
