Signoffs & Success

Today, I was looking through my files and realized that I have signed off 10 students in the last 2 years. Of which 9 passed on the first try! I feel pretty good :)

Plus I've signed off another 11 students for solo (some of which passed with other instructors).

Goodbye LORAN

Seems that LORAN is no more. As someone who has used LORAN in the aviation world, I say it will be missed. Yes, it was inaccurate and outdated but it was the emergency backup system.

Let us hope that GPS never fails else we will be in deep shit.

Interview

So today I found out that I got an interview! The first part is an online quiz, followed up by a demonstration of teaching, and finally followed up by a simulator flight. We'll see how it all goes (I need a new job)!

Interesting Tidbit

So I was teaching groundschool today and ran across an interesting question.
Q: On a Surface Analysis Chart, what does a square indicate?
A: An automated weather station.
