"One Above Bob's" spawn is there in -7 now instructing. Pretty mellow IP too.

Ya know, I was in NMM for 2 years (Int/Adv) and NEVER flew with "Yeller" or "JDizzle". I owe somebody a beer.

I flew almost exclusively with them. JD was my on-wing in T-2 BIs. They're not that bad once you get used to them. The added benefit is that once they become "the norm" to you, everybody else is a piece of cake.

Yep, he's IP in -7. Awesome guy, awesome instructor. Cares a lot about his students... and a lot of fun to do 1v1 high-aspect ACM with!

I simmed with Jdizzle once....

I simmed with "Yeller" a few times. Once you get over the initial shock... he grows on you. I actually liked him a lot by the end of the program.
 
I was flying a sim with JD once in the A-4 sim, and he was all over my A$$. Being in my own little world at the time (closed in the sim) I said (evidently yelled) "I'M WORKING ON IT A$$HOLE!!!".

When I got out, we had the following conversation:

JD: "Look, I know you're working on it. You don't have to call me an a$$hole."

Me: "Oh. You heard that?"

Yeller (from across the room while laughing hysterically): "The whole building heard that"

They're both pretty good guys.

Agreed. He really wants to see you do well, just has a boisterous (understatement) personality and a low BS tolerance . . .

He's got a decent sense of humor too. We were talking to him once at Key Field, he was flying a twin out of there. Funny guy, and friendly outside the sim building.
 
I once filed for Victor routes on a sim once.... Z got wind of it and asked me if I wanted to be a helo pilot and that I should make rotor noises when I'm flying the sim. Freakin riot.
 
I ran into one of JDizzle's students out in town once (he's a math instructor at the college). She claimed all his students LOVED him, that he was the nicest professor and a great teacher. I kept having to confirm we were talking about the same person!

Yep, roommate tutored one of his students. She adored JDizzle.

Roooooger that. I am with you. You don't know if you should be happy or sad about your sim onwing.

Friend of mine ran into him in the golf course before ever being introduced to the legend, let alone the real experience in the sim. Walked away convinced he had just met the nicest sim instructor in Meridian.

HAhaha nice. Yeah I saw him at the course a lot when I'd eat lunch there. He's only "the legend" in the sim. Always pleasant outside of it.
