Wanted to take the time to introduce myself and say hello. I've been surfing around here for a couple weeks now and have already found it to be awesomely helpful.

I'm from Walnut Ridge, AR but have been living/working just outside of Jonesboro now for several years. I'm a CFI, CFII, MEI that recently took my dream job flying/managing a C90 for a local owner. I'm brand new to turbines so I'll need a lot of help there as well as understanding.

I'm newly married so spend a lot of my downtime with the wifey. Outside of that I enjoy music and have played guitar since middle school. Like to get together with friends and play really badly after too many beers. though I've also been playing a few weddings lately when much more sober.

Anyhow, good to be here. Talk soon!

Welcome, Houston.

Now, how about those required photos?

Do you have Tom Clements' King Air book?

Sweet! Another Arkansas pilot!!

Almost went over to Walnut Ridge the other day, but went to Petit Jean instead...

Not sure I know any King Air pilots in the area - mostly just various 35 models..

Welcome aboard Houston. Not familar with Walnut Ridge, but sure spent a lot of time in the Fayetteville, Springdale and Rogers area, rafting, camping and fishing on the White River! :thumbup:

Welcome Houston. Congrats on the new KA gig.

I'm originally from Camden and still visit the parents whenever possible - Thanks to the Deb.

$300 gmail and Facebook support trips are getting me back to AR more often

Don't let this guy fool you...., he's no good! Just some local kid that pretends to be a pilot!

J/K, Houston is a good dude. He's actually flying my old Kingair I sold to get my new bonanza. Here is a pic of what he's flying
