I got cease-trained today, along with 3 other people on EVAL 1. What a shitty feeling.

I can confirm our class is the last FSS class at NCTI, ever.

Thanks yrp! I'm in Cornwall, and wow is NTCI an awesome facility. It's definitely making me feel at ease and reducing my stress level.

I would have liked to go through the CD a few more ...

flightsimmer, read your PM

I'm starting on the 17th of this month, for the bilingual FSS program. I've studied the heck out of the ITA CD, aircraft recoginition, the works. I still don't know what to expect. I'm a little nervous actually. I've prepared as much as I can, but I don't like the unexpected. What's the schedule lik...
