A few changes

Hello family and friends! We wanted to share with you a few changes for the next three months. As many of you have read in previous e-mails, I have been feeling stressed and overwhelmed (Tammi too) with all of the challenges and changes of adapting to a new culture and lifestyle. This has been affecting my (Rodney) ability to stay ahead of the airplane. The program manager has been looking for a way to help me succeed and also fill a few needs that the program has for the next few months. So I am going to take a break from flying and help with the 1,000 hour inspection on our Cessna 206. Since we are going to Uganda for the birth of our baby and this is where all of our plane maintenance is done, it is a good time to make this transition as well as the fact that life in Uganda is much less stressful. The maintenance specialist in Uganda is leaving to go on furlough in May so I will be filling a need there for part of the time he is gone. We plan on leaving next week and anticipate being in Kampala until the end of June. After that we will come back where I will transition back into the cockpit.
