Let me also say, congratulations...

Now, $19K canadian for the private rating, yikes... Even allowing for
the conversion to US dollars, I can only repeat a saying from my youth
when we were raising horses - screwed, shoe'd, and tattooed.. I hope
your night dual goes better...

Any time you are in the USA near michigan give a hollar and we will get
together for some flying...

cheers ... denny
