Milestones Are In The Details

Thought provoking cover
Jan received a short text message from our Navy pilot-in-training: "I am doing my first carrier landing practice stuff." You can let your imagination run wild with whatever that exactly entails. I found a Weblink that shows practice carrier landings at Corpus Christi Naval Air Station. A friend who used to be a Navy helicopter pilot in Vietnam sent me this magazine cover Flying magazine - it seems appropriate for times like this when parents (and girlfriend) wait to hear the details. The details are all milestones. A Navy information Website gives some more background on aircraft carrier landing qualifications.
