I AM NOT MORBID.

I'm just obsessed.  It starts with "GPWS Whoop Whoop Pull up!"  (GPWS: Ground Proximity Warning System; the whoop whoop sound is how the plane tells the pilots that the ground is getting too close, too fast)  I think this and the Battlestar Galactica thing confirm that my inner career desire is to be a pilot.  That and my favorite character in Independence Day was Will Smith.  I mean, WTF is wrong with me.  I'm not going to fly planes in the Foreign Service.  :(  I'm not even going to be able to drive!  It's okay, all I need is to get my motorcycle license.

Someday I will stop angsting about my career choice.

SID: Standard Instrument Departure (route)
CVR: Cockpit Voice Recorder
2P: Co-pilot.  I think.
CB: Circuit breaker is all I can think of.
FTM: Uh?  Flight Training Manual?  
IMC: Instrument Meteorological Conditions, meaning in this case "Is it blind bad weather?"
 




God, that's what I'm going to do after I graduate.  Take motorcycle lessons.
