We have a couple of guests here in the Hogs hangar. This is really cool. And one of the pilots of these MDs is right over here on the wall, and his name is Lorenzo. And I helped Lorenzo quite a few years ago. Eight years ago now, Lorenzo was working on his private pilot. And I'm going to show you a little clip from our training. You get a good laugh at least. Good laugh at me. Lorenzo was working so hard, man, and we just stuck online. It was cool. I'm going to show you that clip now. You know, we've asked you a ton of stuff and you've done really well. But one thing that we didn't talk about yet was what do you think? You know, in your mind right now, what's the most important thing about the day of the test? Is there anything that comes to mind about what do you think is most important of all? What I do is, you know, first, I want to be at least one hour earlier than the time so I can get everything ready, you know, all my books, the inspection, the, you know, registration, everything that I need to have. And I will follow the pts like you say, you know, he give you point by point what you need. Then, you know, I want to be focused. I don't want to be, you know, distracted. I don't want to be nervous, you know, I want to be just focused to what I know, you know, and try to do my best. Right? And then once the inspector come, you know, I want to show him that I'm prepared, you know, like trying to answer fast, you know, don't think bought it all, you know, I would try to do my best. I want to pass it. Right. Perfect. All right, good. You knew exactly where I was going with that, and that's exactly the answer that I wanted to hear. So that really is. So you may get a good laugh out of that. Hey, it was the best we could do in the beginning. We had poor Internet and we were just getting started this online thing. But the point is, we can help you too. We help Lorenzo get through his ratings. We can help you too go down below helicopterground.com or text or call Heather at 574-767-1797. She can help you get set up with a membership, answer your questions. So stay tuned for more MD500 content coming up. Over the next couple weeks, we're gonna go out and do some filming with Lorenzo while he's flying the power lines and doing the power line work. He showed me some videos, and it's pretty darn impressive. And he's also going to jump on camera with us and talk about his career. And for those of you that are, like, looking for that, how do I get there? Lorenzo did it. It's not easy. He applied himself, but he did it and he's going to tell you how. So stay tuned for more great content coming up over the next couple weeks. Going to be doing a bunch of fun stuff, so see you next video. Peace out.
