Re: Convince me I can do this? I can see across the ocean that you are a strong person. You've made it this far. Your going to make it even further.
It doesn't surprise me a bit to hear the worry and anxity in your post. A lot of people's first post sound like yours. We are all so proud, but so lost and left behind. It gets better. Some days will be good. Some days will be horrible. Jetgirls really helps me with some of the "pilot family" loneliness.
Stick around and hang in there.
I dug up my first post (7/9/07) for you to read and maybe not feel so lonely. . . Hello all! My name is Kathy. I am entirely new to the commercial airlines way of life. My husband has just started flying for Chautauqua Airlines. In fact he was on his first day of IOE yesterday when I was feeling pretty lost and tripped over this forum on the internet.
We have been married for six years. We have two dogs, which are our children. I am an accountant and work some pretty long hours.
Aaron just finished six weeks of training in Houston and is currently out on four days of trips. My my, how our lives have changed since April!
I am so proud of him. He is enjoying every min. the things he is learning, the people he is meeting and the places he is going. But I am sad to be without my best friend.
We live in Nashville, TN. He is based in Colmbus, OH.
I am not sure what else to add, but I am already greatful to have found this forum. I read a lot of post and I don't feel quite as alone. Thank you so very much! |
