A few minutes alone in a plane (Patreon)

An update on me:
I've been quite busy lately. Work is pretty tough at the moment. There are several personalities compounded by deadlines that end up being a bit difficult to manage. I end up having to make decisions about "who to make mad" because I can't please everyone. That's not so fun, but sometimes in life that's the way things are. I made the command decision to take a week off and take my wife on a trip (I'll be sending you more stuff from Iceland sooooonn!!!). It was great. We kind of fell in love again. It meant a whole lot to me and made me realize that I'm 100% ok with people at work not being completely happy as long as my family life is doing well.
In a few months I'll be transitioning away from helicopters back to rockets I think. I'm working hard to finish my pilot license before that time. Becoming a pilot was a personal goal so I had a really good idea of what the pilots were going through so I could be a productive crew member. I think that was accomplished, so at this point I'm just working to get that final piece of paper. I have a dream of taking my wife on a flight up to Asheville, North Carolina in the fall to see the trees change colors.
The video that you're seeing here is neat for me. It's me alone in an airplane... super excited and anxious because I'm still a bit nervous about making the PERFECT radio call. Anyways, I thought I'd just type out some stuff and give you a feel for where I'm at mentally at the moment.
There's a really neat video that I"m trying to finish and put out tomorrow about driving one hand (and no legs). Hopefully I'm able to finish!
Regards, and thank you very much for supporting me on Patreon. I know you're an actual human, supporting another actual human who is trying to do their best to make the world better. Your compassion and generosity is not lost on me, or my family.
