- My friend Alex, all smiles after his checkride!
- Jeff and I share a laugh on the dock!
So, we had a couple of checkrides this week! My friends Alex and Jeff recently became ASES-rated pilots, and I couldn’t be happier for them.
 Alex came to us from California, but he was born in Russia, so I learned some Russian from him. I learned I am a Ñобака, pronounced by English-speakers as “suh-BAH-kuh.” That’s “dog” in Russian 🙂
 Jeff is studying in the AMT program at South Seattle Community College, along with two of our stellar employees Jennie and Heather!  He’s also a recent graduate of Rocky Mountain College in Montana, with a degree in Aeronautical Science. Wow! He and his instructor, my friend Kit, had a lot of fun talking about Montana.
Hey – why don’t YOU come fly with us? I’d love to share some laughs with you, too!
Cheers,
Toby James
