This morning my room mate Vincent and I need to be school and make finger prints. After 911, The States is more cautious about foreigners come to learn flying, making finger prints and checking your background is just one of the new rules. After filling out some TSA (Transportation Security Administration) forms, our beautiful principle Miss Lysa asked a dispatcher Justin to send us to San Jose for finger prints. Late on, Justin showed up again, and threw headsets to each of us. I was shocked "We fly to San Jose!?" This cool guy shrugged and replied " off course! It takes one hour and 20 minutes to drive there." "and how about flying?" Vincent asked."15 minutes." Justin answered.
Wow!! flying school is different after all, even the transportation is so unique!!
Let's fly!
今天早上和室友到學校準備去壓指紋，911事件後，美國對外國人來學開飛機新設了很多規定，壓指紋查背景是其中之一。
在校長室上國土安全部的網站填了一些表格，印出來準備去 San Jose 按指紋，美麗高挑的校長Miss Lysa 請一個 Dispatcher Justin帶我們去，ㄧ會兒 Justin 出現，遞給我們ㄧ人一副頭戴式耳機。我很驚訝的問他“我們要飛去嗎？“很愛裝酷的Justin聳聳肩，一副理所當然的樣子“當然啊！開車去要一個小時二十分耶！““那飛去呢？“Vincent問，“十五分鐘。“哇！飛行學校倒底是不一樣啊，連交通工具都是飛機耶！
到了停機坪，一堆小飛機排排站。場景讓我想到當初剛進新航，第一次上貨機，諾大的機艙空無ㄧ人，我站在艙門高高的往下望，不住的張口傻笑。興奮之情就像當時ㄧ樣，我們高興的每架都摸摸看看，二十分鐘後 Justin 檢查完飛機，起飛囉！
