Mission Scanner School completed!
File this under: not-really-related-to-Aerospace-Education-but-worth-bragging-about-mentioning anyway...
David and I both had the opportunity to attend a Mission Scanner School hosted by the Hayward squadron for Group 2 this weekend. I've been meaning to do this for several years, but either the opportunity hasn't arrived (such courses are few and far between here in the desolation that is the SF Bay Area) or I haven't been sufficiently motivated to travel to, say, Redding or Fresno to attend one. This time, both opportunity and motive coincided. (I also happened to have my flight suit, which I haven't had for over a year since I had given it to someone who shall charitably remain nameless here to ensure that I had all the correct badges, and I just got it back last week.)
At any rate, the school extended over both days of the weekend, and both David and I passed. So we're both now officially Mission Scanner Trainees. Now I just need to get a couple of missions under my belt, and fulfill one more requirement, and I should be a fully qualified Mission Scanner.
And about time, if I do say so myself...
