Dare to dream - Astronaut Chris Hadfield

Well, bit out of the bush, but very captivating. Colonel Chris Hadfield was born on a corn farm in 1959. And decided to become an astronaut when he saw the Apoll 11 landing on the Moon. He followed his dreams and today he soars above us aboard the ISS - this is his third space flight - and provides tremendous motivation for everyone down here. 

From a sentence he said in an interview he gave to reddit.com (you can read the whole interview clicking on the link) the guys at zenpencils.com made a nice and super motivating cartoon. You can join the astronaut on Facebook.

Two pilots needed: Nyassa Air Taxi, Malawi

It seems that inspite earlier rumours Nyassa Air Taxi is continuing their operations. And birdies whisper that they are looking for two pilots (their website seems to confirm this). Their requirements for getting the position are CPL with intrument rating, 400 hours PIC (not total) time. They'd prefer a pilot who is older than 24, has some bush experience and experience on any of the airplanes operated by the company (PA28, PA32, GA8).
