SIMULATOR EXPERIENCE
In Jan of 2023 I was hired by Freightrunners Express as a sim instructor and systems ground school. I enjoy the position and thrive on the work. The one 120 simulator in the USA is down moire than it is up and my future employment somewhat in doubt. I’m looking for a position a bit more secure and dependable.
