Hangar Flying - HL 148 (2)

Subject: job teaching ground school MD-80        

 
Hi George,

I hope all is going well in NH. I have really missed not being able to attend the Fly-ins and catch up with everyone.

I am in Sanford, FL (just north of Orlando) working for a startup airline called Orange Air. We are going to be a 121Supplemental carrier operating MD-80s and plan to get our Operating Certificate by Jan or Feb. In the meantime, we are looking for an MD-80 guy (preferably retired) that might be interested in teaching ground school and eventually being a simulator instructor as well. The individual would probably need to live in the Orlando area or be able to commute here quite often.

I was hoping that you might disseminate this through your network and see if there might be anyone interested.

Subject: F-35B sea trials.

This video was made just 6 weeks ago in the Atlantic, just off Newport News ( Hampton Roads), Virginia .

These are the latest sea trials of the F-35B on the USS Wasp. They were very successful, with 74 Vertical Landings’ & Standard Take Offs in a 3 week period.

The media and the program critics had predicted that we would burn holes in the deck and wash sailors overboard.

Neither of which happened. You will notice a sailor standing on the bow of the ship as the jet rotates.

That was an intentional part of the sea trials.

No catapult... No hook... It’s a new world out there!

The shape and scope of warfare worldwide just changed.
