I can't believe I'm the first on this one. OPULENCE? I HAS IT.

Congrats, man, sounds like a fairytale!

Congratulations! She's a great airplane. Sounds like a great gig, too!

That is an amazing move!! Talk about an opportunity of a lifetime. Congrats FSI!!!

 

[Autothrust Blue]

Thanks everyone.

One request though, if you do know the tail number please don't post it on the board. I will be more than happy to give private tours when we are in the states.

Right on.

Thanks. Just one type though. I already have the Gulfstream type rating.

You get a 757 type out of it, too.

Very true!

As for moving my family over to Moscow...well that is a let's see decision. For now a lot of my duties will be here stateside and I will commute to Moscow and to the airplane where ever it may be. Once things stabilize and we grow the base we very well may move out to Moscow on a more full time basis. Just gotta wait and see how it all works out.

Congrats! Looks like a sweet ride - I'd be nervous about spilling stuff on all of that white carpet.

Thank you. First flight is either 1st or 2nd of September. I'm looking forward to it.

Wow, congratulations.

 

[Krieger]

It's past September 1st! Can I get a ride report? How was your first landing!

 

[Theodore]

Way to go!! Did you do your initial training at Flight Safety?

Wish I had one to give. Haven't flown yet though. Had other commitments so my next flight is on the 14th of Sept. I leave on a 14 day rotation.

As for training, FSI doesn't do training on large jets like the 767. I went to Pan Am in Miami. For our company, we either go to Pan Am in Miami or the American Airlines Training center in Dallas.
