Western Global Airlines/Global Ops Center

Just had to share... As of 1700Z today, we are an official airline! Finished up proving runs late night Friday and got word from the FAA today. Finally!

Many of you here know what a long road this has been but for those that don't, WGA has been 2 years in the making. I've been fortunate to be part of the process the last 17 months. Being part of a start up has taught me so much about the operation as a whole. I'd say it was definitely a risk worth taking for me!

Thanks! Yes, so excited to be dispatching again. Dispatching during proving runs was all kinds of fun and crazy stressful... Nothing like having 4-5 feds standing directly behind you, watching every move you make!

Congrats !! That's a big deal. I'll be rootin' for your continued success.

You should've told the feds there's an alligator out back. They all would've run out there to watch it and left you alone.

Feds love alligators...same gene pool.

Congrats and now I guess you have to start earning your salary? Heck you have been skating for what 17 months now.

Actually I am sure you feel relieved to get back into the routine of sending shiny aluminum tubes all over the place.

Do you know how motivated new hires will be when you tell them if they don't pass their check out, they have to feed Fred!!!

Bafan and F9... You guys are funny! Thanks for the well wishes, and the laughs
