Track Select

I know, I am a little late with this posting! About two weeks ago Todd's squadron had what is called their track select. This is basically when the active duty guys find out what plane they will be training on next (and that in turn effects the plane they get assigned to at the end of pilot training). For example...some of Todd's classmates wanted to go on to be a fighter pilot so they were trying to get a T-38. The 4 options are T-38, T-1 (that is what Todd got), T-44, and Helo. All of the guard guys already knew what they were getting because they know what they will be flying at the end of pilot training. In Todd's case he will be flying a C-130. That night they revealed what track each person would be going on to and they kind of "roast" each person as they are up front. It was pretty funny!

Here are a few pictures from that day...

This is us beside the T-1 (the "new" plane he is training on)

Here is Todd checking it out! (He is like a kid in a candy store!)

Me in the simulator...I did a successful touch and go!!

Group shot!

Me and my hubby (This picture is kind of funny...we both have odd expressions on our face but it was the only one of just him and I from that night so it will have to do!)

So as of now Todd is learning about the T-1 and his sims will be starting real soon! He has had two test and got 100% on both (Good job babe!) We are about halfway done in this whole process...in one of their meeting they were told that 99% of people that make it this far, achieve their wings. Those are some good odds! Alright, talk to you soon! Byes!
