Robyn & J Alex Next 3 years

I hope everyone is having a great weekend! It has been quite the busy
time for J and I. J has graduated pilot training and I will be
graduating on October 24th (only 2 weeks, YAY!). With us finishing up
pilot training we have finally found out what our next assignment
will be.

As of last night it is official that J and I will be staying in
Columbus, Mississippi for 3 more years. J is going to be a T-6 FAIP
and I will be a T-1 FAIP.

A FAIP is a First Assignment Instructor Pilot. Basically, J and I
will go to San Antonio, TX for about 4 months of training to learn
how to become instructor pilots. The T-6 is the initial aircraft that
students fly in pilot training and then the T-1 is the cargo/heavy
follow-on aircraft.

We will be instructors for 3 years and then after that we will go on
to fly a different aircraft. We are excited for the chance to be
instructors and for the fact that we know we will be together for at
least 3 years!

Also, to celebrate living in Mississippi we bought a house. We moved
in a few weeks ago and are thoroughly enjoying house projects and
making it our own. We have a guest room so company is always welcome!
We're getting to know a lot more about the South so we can almost be
a tour guide!

Our new address is:
72 N Butternut Drive
Columbus, MS 39705

Our phone numbers will stay the same:
home phone: 503-922-2576
Robyn cell: 541-760-7068
J cell: 503-593-1881

Hopefully, now that we are winding down with training we should have
more free time to stay in touch with people more. We'd love to hear
from you!

~Robyn
