I’m VERY excited. I’ve just received authorisation to take flying lessons. I can’t wait to start but actually just getting permission to start as a foreigner is an achievement in itself. I’ve filled in endless forms for the Transportation Security Administration and had my fingerprints taken by YET another organisation (I’m not going to make it as a cat burglar here).
I’ve had to apply via the Alien Flight School Program – which makes me think of ET having to deal with the authorities before landing his ship here . Maybe the program is less well policed in Nevada where there are all those UFO sightings.
I’ll keep you posted on how it goes.
