Progress at last...

So today i recieved my FAA release. This means that now if I can pass the standard physical I should be good to go. I've got a appointment on Friday for that. I'm going to take it extra easy until then, ya know, for my hernia's sake. I'm not sure if I'm cleared to start flying on Friday or if it's two weeks from Friday. I'll clear up these questions at the physical. I know this is just a small bit of progress but at the same time it's huge. Plus I've been waiting to see any movement. And this is it...  Yeah me.

Still waiting...

So I'm still waiting to hear something back from the flight doc. I contacted his office and talked with his receptionist. She said it was in his inbox but now the paperwork has been filed away. She said this generally means it's already been sent to the FAA. So she's pretty sure it's on it's way and should be back sometimes this week if I'm lucky. She did say she is going to have the doc call me first thing tuesday. BTW, she also said that first thing Tuesday mean sometimes after 1:30pm.

I also talked with the flight school. Since I'm going to have my hernia surgery on the 30th that may interfer with my training a bit. They said they could come up with plenty of ground school type things for me to do until I was OK to fly again. I really need to get moving on this. I hate making payments for something I can do.

Flight doc stuff...

So I finally got all the paperwork turned into the flight doc yesterday. I'm unsure if he needs to see me again or not. I think there is still a drug test to do but other than that I think it's ready for the FAA. I'm sooooo ready to get off the ground.
