6-2001: Pt 91 Aerial Mapping 250 tt
I got lucky and found a job in upstate New York mapping right out of school. The owner was the best man I have ever known. He treated me right and paid me well. 9/11 put a hurt on us and we seemed to struggle from then on, but he never stopped giving me raises. I left there making as much as some regional captains. It is the job I will always look back on fondly, as I have never had a boss I respected as much.
