Finally, after a few years and over 2100 hours for the AAV Rey Ramon has passed his final Check Flight, Commander.
This is the strived for position that all pilots for AAV should have and work toward. The rewards for this are not only what and where you can fly, but a huge sense of personal accomplishment for all the hard work to get this far.
Everybody applaud Rey for this. Congratulations Commander Rey. Welcome to the Club.
I thank you, WLP.
Top -O- the heap rank, finally, the Commander.

Re: Top -O- the heap rank, finally, the Commander.
FINALLY! Congratulations, Rey, on making Commander.
Your key to the Elite Commander Loo (ECL) in most of our hubs is in the mail. There also exists a master map to the loo locations, but it has been misplaced. My suggestion is you grab one of the Commanders from a Hub and see if they know where their loo is located. In some instances, like me, the loo map is out of date - mine for Dallas is for DAL, and we are still trying to find the one for Phoenix, however, there is a trailer parked under one of the jetways serving as an interim loo.

Re: Top -O- the heap rank, finally, the Commander.
That just goes to show that it doesn't matter how long it takes, It's still achievable by any of our pilots. I hope that message alone inspires others to strive for "Commander" Rank as well. Congratulations Rey, it really is quite an achievement and all your hard work and dedication has paid off. Welcome to the elite club.
