Becoming a US Citizen This Friday

Not much to say flying-wise, I am still suffering from health issues that make it difficult for me to sit in a plane so the Commercial rating is for next year. However, the big news is that I am swearing the Oath of Allegiance this Friday the 14th and will become a US citizen. Apart from many benefits work-wise, I am excited that it will make additional ratings like the multi-engine easier to take. Not that I am sure I want to, but having to go through all the TSA hoops meant that I would never even consider it otherwise.

Your Pilot In Command

I got my private pilot certificate in Feb 2002, and my instrument rating exaclty one year later in 2003. I fly out of Montgomery Field, San Diego, renting Cessna 172s, 182s, and Piper Archers from PlusOneFlyers. I also have high performance and complex endorsements.

Currently, I have approximately 295 hours of PIC time, including 450 landings, and a monster 6.4 hours of actual instrument time. January 2009
