Not only will I get to see all my buddies and catch up with everyone, but getting to spend a week in the North Georgia, Alabama area is awesome! Totally excited about the pilot class, it will take all the Level 1 and 2 skills (which are the prereqs. for the class) into the field for a week of practice scenarios. Those skills and tools that you talk about, and sometimes see, but not everyone gets to touch and use, will show up in Team Operations and Field Exercises (TOFE). We'll have the opportunity to really hone in our skills with practice, practice, practice! We'll pull the "whole picture" together in different environments, incorporating the technical aspects of rescue, rigging and such, with comm, ICS, patient care and general problem solving. While it's not on the general info. about the seminar, TOFE will show up when you go to register, so don't be dissuaded. It should be great, but it IS a PILOT CLASS and space is limited!!

What's the best way to get from one of the airports (prefer Atlanta) to Mentone without renting a car? It seems wasteful to rent a car to let it sit for a week while I'm in the class. Are there any carpools going or group transport arrranged?
Mentone is certainly out of the way of everything--great for the class itself, but tough to get there!

I assume you're planning to arrive on Thursday Greg? If you're driving, you could pick me at at the airport on the way if you want to.
I'm thinking of flying into Chattanooga, but I can't book flights until I know where I'll be leaving from. Situation normal for me!
