Hi Eric,

I am happy to see the FAA has recognized what an asset Sheffield is to the dispatching community. Those of us that have earned our certificates there have recognized that since the day we started.

I just wanted to give you an update on where I am professionally. I was hired on at Spirit at the end of February and I’ve been signed off and working as a Flight Dispatch Officer since the last week in March. So, things are going well for me.

Thanks again for giving me a reference when I applied. I appreciate everything that you and Sheffield have done for me. Now that I’m just around the corner if Sheffield needs anything let me know.

Thanks Again,

Brian Folan
