Wow, what a way to login in after finishing a late sim tonight. I don't know what to say after the accolades Doug posted. Its true I have been on JC a long time and always tried to pay it forward when I could. My first CFI job came from JC, and ever since meeting Doug and others at the first Networking event, I realized there was more to this site that just internet chat. Real people getting together to talk, network, laugh and make friends.
CRJ, although I told Doug to choose whomever he felt deserving, I secretly had you in mind. I wanted him to make the decision, but I am glad you were chosen. You seem to follow the same philosophies I do, never burn a bridge and whenever possible, try to help others in need. Enjoy the time in Las Vegas, and I hope that this opportunity allows you to move forward with your career.
