    53. Minus uniforms. Minus hotel. Minus loan repayments for the company flight school. A first year pilot is lucky to see 35k taxable income.

    I just read an add in Land Line magazine for Mercer. It sounds pretty awesome. You might think about going there.

    All well good crap but its more an electronics, not a really frame issue because the option that would have gave the pilots more info before crash was not standard was an option and to save cost they didn't put it in but that alone isn't the only issue but what leads to 2 of the crashes. small planes more so propellers planes would take over a propulsion engine any day they have their issues especially you neglect it but you turn a lot quicker the one I fly. it is funny how an option of safety is optional on a plane meant haul passengers.

    Truck is fixed!! Didn't replace the headlight as the crack on the top corner was miniscule but the driver's side hood was replaced and paint matched. My CDL is reinstated with Schneider and now I'll get back to the groove of work.

    So I finally got ahold of my SFI account admin and asked to have my next 2 truck payments deferred. Not doing so would probably mean going the next 2-3 weeks without any money in my pocket. He agreed, but when I start payments again they'll take an extra $250/wk plus $50-$60/wk in late fees until the truck is current again. Not awesome but I'll deal with it.

    Also my insurance is sending me a $625 check for my repair downtime. Again, not totally awesome but I'll take it. If anything when I get to a point where I can pay the late amount off early I'll just call SFI and have them take my whole settlement if they need to. I can survive 1 week without anything. 2 is a no-no.

    Planned myself for the rest of the pay week. It's a paltry $3880 gross but it's better than nothing. Plus with the replacement hood piece I'll need a new NY Hut sticker. When the repair guy removed the sticker from the old fender he put it on my dash for me, but it now reads "Void" all over it, so I can't reapply it to the truck.

    Just another day in the life of a kid WAY in over his head.
    At least I cancelled that stupid ATBS though! Got my own tax gal now.
