Hi All,
I've been with WWA for a couple of weeks and I thought that I would finally get on here and introduce myself to the Hub. My real world flight experience is limited to being a Navy Aircrewman (non-pilot) on the MH-53E Super Dragon. I also have experience as a hydraulic and structural mechanic on the F-14D Super Tomcat and F/A-18A/B/C/D Hornet /E/F Super Hornet & /G Growler.
So far my experience here with WWA has been nothing short of spectacular. I finally got the nerve up to try my first VATSIM flight last week, I honestly don't know what I've been waiting for. Last night (Friday May 16) was my first flight with service from push back to shutdown and it was amazing. Traffic at arrival (JFK) was packed and I got put into holding (never done that before). Add that onto the weather (3/4 to 1 vis) and the pucker factor for me was high. I love the realism it adds. You know they say that with drugs, the high is never as good as the first time. Is this the same way? I know that I am already addicted. Well regardless, I love it. Thanks to everybody that helped get me started.
Again, I'm happy to be here, and I'll see you guys around the skies.
