FreightDawginIt: January 2007
http://freightdawginit.blogspot.com/2007_01_01_archive.html
Stories and tales from reformed freight trash. Now posting from seat 0A of a Barbie Jet. Friday, January 26, 2007. Here is the Eclipse Jet that I saw. Apparently this was the first time the controller had seen one as well because he asked the pilot what type of aircraft it was. We got a kick out of seeing this parked in front of a Museum. That is exactly where that hunk of flying junk belongs. Posted by Windsor at 12:28 PM. Wednesday, January 17, 2007. Memorial Trust for Hughes and Patty Families. Next u...

http://freightdawginit.blogspot.com/2006_07_01_archive.html
Stories and tales from reformed freight trash. Now posting from seat 0A of a Barbie Jet. Monday, July 31, 2006. In the few short months I've been at my company, I've learned who the good people in dispatch and crew scheduling are and who are not so bright. Yesterday I had a very bad encounter with one of the persons who's not the best. Sometimes they make decisions that just get me scratching my head and going "Why? What the hell are you thinking"? The gears in my head are turning."what is this crap?

Stories and tales from reformed freight trash. Now posting from seat 0A of a Barbie Jet. Wednesday, December 20, 2006. A Merry Christmas for somebody. Yesterday was a great day! Posted by Windsor at 11:20 AM. Thursday, December 14, 2006. Posted by Windsor at 3:50 PM. Monday, December 11, 2006. Ahhh The freight delay. It is not uncommon for us freight dawggers to have long delays waiting on freight. The company will page us out for a trip and tell us "Get there as fast as you can, freight is waiting!

Crazy for Flying: The Weather Dance
http://crazy4flying.blogspot.com/2009/07/weather-dance.html
A chronicle of my flying adventures with my husband and my dog. as I get my private pilot and beyond. Wednesday, July 22, 2009. It's that time before a trip. the time where my stomach starts to do little flip flops and I am easily distracted from everyday tasks. I start watching the clock till when the next weather update comes out on http:/ www.aviationweather.gov/. And trying to compute enroute. Times, mapping possible routes in my head against the weather map. In formation with 60 other Cessnas. I hav...

Crazy for Flying: November 2008
http://crazy4flying.blogspot.com/2008_11_01_archive.html
A chronicle of my flying adventures with my husband and my dog. as I get my private pilot and beyond. Tuesday, November 25, 2008. The pace of my flying has slowed a bit, mostly because of the approaching winter weather. which is something of a good thing. Our checking account can't keep up with the rate of flying I did in October! I'm having to adjust a bit to that idea- but it makes sense given how much more time and energy (and studying) I've done lately. Husband is out right now finishing his stag...

Crazy for Flying: June 2010
http://crazy4flying.blogspot.com/2010_06_01_archive.html
A chronicle of my flying adventures with my husband and my dog. as I get my private pilot and beyond. Wednesday, June 9, 2010. We finished the requirements for the Virginia Aviation Ambassadors program. It was great to be back in the air together. Though a little warm, it was a pretty good flying day for summer. Miracle of miracles, we even got a Bravo clearance on the way out. We don't usually get cleared into that airspace even when we fly IFR! Head in the Clouds. Links to this post. Head in the Clouds.

A chronicle of my flying adventures with my husband and my dog. as I get my private pilot and beyond. Thursday, March 5, 2009. Women, Women, Everywhere! Last month I celebrated getting my commercial rating by attending my first Women in Aviation International ( WAI. Conference in Atlanta. (Since then, I've also gone skiing, taken on a new job at a new company, and begun work on my CFI. So more will be coming! The conference was amazing- and the people I met there were even more amazing! Weather and the XM.

A chronicle of my flying adventures with my husband and my dog. as I get my private pilot and beyond. Tuesday, April 20, 2010. Back in the Air! In March. our new little future pilots were born! Julia and Jonathan made their arrival (somewhat unexpectedly) and immediately took over our hearts and lives! After almost 2 weeks in the NICU, we brought them home and began a new life as a family of four. A month after the twins were born, I took my first flight as a new mom! What a fun day!

A chronicle of my flying adventures with my husband and my dog. as I get my private pilot and beyond. Thursday, May 21, 2009. Note: this is from a few months back. I just forgot to finish and publish the post! Somehow, I came up with the response "Soft-field landing technique! Calling the FBO on the phone (they didn't answer on the radio), we learned that there was a mechanic on field- but that he was out of town for the next 2-3 weeks! Ed an extra headset from the FBO. I s howed her w. She did that....
