New job......

[jskibo]

Well after six years as the Program Manager for F/A-18 mission systems and F22 Power distribution for GE Aviation systems I accepted an offer today as the Senior Customer Services Manager for Military Engines for UAE, Oman and Egypt.

Back to the Middle East again at least in a travel role.

Will be moving to the Cincinnati / Dayton area in the next month or so.

Any good flying clubs in the area? I need a gap filler / backup until I settle in and buy a plane.

Yes, I'll cover. Need to talk about status match, looks like I should switch to a certain other carrier given my location and numerous Middle East trips upcoming.

My condolences on having to move to the Cincitucky area! Congrats on the new job! You can go fly at Sportys. There is also a place or two at Lunken and Blue Ash. I'm still surprised CVG hasn't reduced it's taxes/rent and landing fees that would allow FBOs and Flight Schools to set up shop, since there there has been over 75% reduction in flights in and out of there.

They have landing fees? I took the Cardinal in their and don't remember getting hit with one.

I plan on buying once I get settled in and can find a reasonable hangar to rent. Just need some rentals to stay IFR current until then.

Wow, good to see you here shipmate. I was concerned that @Maximillian_Jenius kept you locked up in the Gimp outfit all the time. Good to see he gives you yard privileges occasionally!
