Instructing in PA-28/PA-44/C-172 for my day job/instructing in C-150 on the side. I was pretty brutal in the FTD to my students:

70/75 Steve? Nice! Did they ever decide if it would be differences or a new type? That is one of my only regrets about leaving WM -- missed the opportunity to fly that thing. Looks really nice.
 
Since I flew the same three basic aircraft types as most up through CFI (172, 172RG, PA44), I'll start here:

Tried to go to college for something else. Airplanes brought me back to being happy again. Went to the best school ever and flew Beech sports, sundowners, Bonanzas and Travel Airs after I finished they asked me to come back to teach so it was my first flying job as well.

After the dump of 121 in 2008 I worked as a ramper for Horizon and after not agreeing with a head of a department I left and moved across the state with my now wife to work as a ramper and flight instruct in 172's

At the flight school a local corporate pilot came in looking for a commercial rated multi pilot. I was the only one there so I scored a great contract pilot opportunity in a King Air. This is what it looks like after the upgrade after about a year of flying it.

The flight school shut down and I couldn't support myself comfortably off of one aircraft. While I was teaching I also met a chief pilot who I kept in contact with and he gave me another great opportunity to fly 121. So I flew one of my dream aircraft the Dash-8 don't laugh I've loved the baby dash as a kid growing up in Seattle and seeing all the Horizon Dash-8's. After the Dash I flew the miserable ATR-72.

Then we found a baby was going to be arriving and it would be difficult to raise a baby in the middle of the ocean so we moved back to the mainland to be closer to family. Right about the same time we found out my wife was pregnant the previous company I flew the King Air with offered me a full-time salaried position. So I ended up back in the same King Air.
