i'm also thinking on join the Airforce or the Navy to support my aviation carreer. i don't know what to do yet. anyways... i got guys at my field who haev a full time job and family and i see them out EVERY sat rain for shine... if it's windy they'll be out there round 5 just to fly. my parents expects a lot out of me, and i got to keep the straight A's or glying will come to a stop, when i'm in college i bet they will be expecting the same, this expectation i don't mind because it's obvious that if i can't keep my grades then i can't fly. probaly for my senior graudation gift i might wan't a foamie and a glow, fly whenever i can, and stop when i have to. LIFE SUCKS!!! there are too many things to worry about!! and i'm not even out of HIGH SCHOOL YET!!! but airplane keep me goin...
