Career Changer

While I thought I had flown alot in the past month, it is nothing like what I hoped.  I might be flying more, but still VERY slow to add total time to the logbook.  Without long cross-country flights I am not building time.  With long cross-country flights, I don’t get to fly as much due to other items needing my attention both before and after the time off from flying.  I have had multiple friends tell me that I need to focus on getting my CMEL now and build some twin time to better position myself for the career change.  Guess I need to block some time and get that done.  It still involves getting the written done, which I told myself I wanted to do before starting the manevers.  I still believe that is the best for me, and need to put time aside everyday to study for that exam.

We will see what the next month will bring!

Looking at the logbook, I did make a goal I wanted of 100hours in the Cirrus before the end of February.  I did by one day.  The problem is that the hours just don’t seem to be adding up in the logbook.  I have been flying more for business, but with the short trips and long days the time is just not adding alot to the logbook.  At this rate I don’t see making my goal of being at mins anytime soon 8(

I am determining how to accomplish my goals and keep an income for the family in the process.  Not as easy as you might think! LOL.  I have extended my trips to get atleast 2 hours RT on each flight, but what I need is mulitple 5+ hour day.  If I cannot get more then 20 hours a month I will have to admit that I will NEVER make the dream, as by the time I got there my age would be an issue at any airline, including a regional.
