Hai, the first ‘in the box’ session was a get to know like where things are. I have a poster of the flight deck in my room on the wall so I can look at it and remember things. Mostly now it’s learning the checklists and calling out and touching what’s on the list; not unlike the bizjet but more complex.

Eloy is one of the premier sky-diving sites here in Arizona. Many desert sky-diving scenes in the movies are shot there.

I have in-law family in and around that area, including a former mayor of Eloy.
