3 weeks and counting

So i sent my documents for my work visa to the Saudi Embassy in D.C. They say I will have it back by the 29th. Once this happens, i'm good to go. I am planning on going around Feb 15th. So much to do, so little time. I hope I can visit everyone before I leave. My biggest concern now if finding Riley a good home until I get back.

my new office




the helicopter I will be working on. A little bit of a change from a Agusta Koala, but better than the Astar we just got.

Just got my contract

I began this process in the early weeks on December 09. I have acquired all my paperwork and just received my official contract today. It's 16 pages long, so I need to read it carefully. The process has been very smooth and the recruiter has been more than helpful. They have a tentative start date of Feb 1st. I was hoping it would be towards the middle of Feb. We'll see if i can change that. If not, i'm outta here in 2 weeks. The reality sets in as more things come together. I'm stoked to meet and work with new people and be in a foreign territory. I will keep everyone up to date on my progress.
