Endeavour, Always

Birds don’t fly as high.
Airplanes don’t go as fast.
The Statue of Liberty weighs less.
No species other than human can even comprehend what is going on, nor could any human just a millennium ago.
The launch of a rocket bound for space is an event that inspires awe and challenges description.

Fly Like an Eagle

Work has been pretty slow since the holidays.  It’s warmed up a little lately and since the airport stopped playing Christmas music, I can actually stand being there again.  It’s now my third year with American Eagle, and time is literally flying by.  A yearly checkride is coming up in the middle of February.  Otherwise I am very much on cruise control.  I still like what I’m doing, and it definitely beats having a real job.  Coming up in the next year will be the jet/prop question: Keep flying the prop for better schedules or switch to the jet for better pay?  Don’t quite know the answer to that one yet.  It depends how fast we grow this year, I guess.
