03-30-02 - Yesterday I got a chance that I just had to jump at.  A classmate of mine, TJ, is going for his commercial pilot's license.  To get it, he must have 160 hours of "pilot-in-command" experience.  That means taking other people for a ride.  Just like sky diving, you put your life in somebody else's hands knowing that they have no desire to die right now either.  We had completely free reign of anywhere we wanted to go.  It's so awesome seeing everything from above.  Here we go!
