My great and not so great achievements

My doctor said that there was an average of 3 months wait on transport Canada to deliver the Class 3 certificate. This forces me to wait on the ground school enrollment till I receive it.

Last fall, I finally decided to make an old dream come true. Becoming a pilot. So, I started from the beginning.
