Hello everyone, it’s been a while since you heard from me, so I’d like to update you on my life. I just finished my first year of aerospace engineering at Concordia University in Montreal and it went well. It was a big adjustment moving across the country on my own into an entirely new environment but the year was very successful. I ended the year with a 3.53 GPA!
I started working as an intern at Bell Flight in Mirabel, Quebec last week and I will be there until the end of August. My job is to help engineers with the certification process of helicopters for Transport Canada, stress testing the main metals used in the aircraft and organizing the certification documents accordingly. Bell Flight has two central locations: one in Mirabel and one in Fort Worth, Texas. The location here produces helicopters from the ground up and it is really impressive to see the entire process in action.
I haven’t been able to fly during the school year but I will be working near an airport this summer so I’m hoping to be able to continue flight training during the summer months. The majority of people speak French in this area, so I hope to find a flight instructor who can teach me in English. I will reach out to the flight school sometime in the next couple of weeks once I’m settled into my new job.
Great news! Love the updates, hope you get some great flying in over the summer months.
This is fantastic news! Let us know when you have the details on the flight school/instructor. Looking forward to you continuing your flight training. BTW – How’s music coming along?
I have been playing piano frequently! Unfortunately, I don’t have any of my other instruments with me so I haven’t played anything else recently.
