    Logs are easy man. Not worried at all about that. How long ago did you attended the refresher orientation. How was it.

    I'm sure you could pass that road test. Just pay your way and get your money back from the company

    Thanks you for the kind words. I am also just trying to see if I should focus on anything video wise that I didn't already feel comfortable with you know.

    Option one seems reasonable. Would look at backing videos and take your time. Backing trips more people up than anything else in road test for companies.

    Thank you China. I am going to be very picky with the company I choose. I want to do flatbed and I want a good starting company. With that said Maverick has also said they will take me just taking a long time for them to finalize the app.
