Phase II
Today was the first day of Phase II. In the last class 2 people quit after day 1, and another quit after about 2 weeks, that guy majored in Aero in college, he just decided this wasn't for him. I definitely questioned what I was doing here instead of backpacking several times today, and I don't think I ever really answered them, I was too busy and my head was spinning like mad. I'll go into more detail later as to what the days are like. I was supposed to have my first flight today, we taxied all the way onto the runway, powered up, and had to abort because my mic kept cutting out. You can't fly if you can't communicate. So we'll try again tomorrow, followed by a sim in the evening, hopefully tomorrow I can make myself relax more and soak in what is going on around me rather than messing with my gear. I mean, I'm getting to FLY!!! Certainly I have the mental fortitude to relax and play the Top Gun theme as we walk to our aircraft with our G-suit on. HA, all Air Force guys are required to make fun of Top Gun, even though they all loved it growing up.
