"Hi Guys, As some of you know, I am going in for heart surgery. The date is set for June 8th, so I'll be out of commission for a week or two. I'll get a couple of flights done this weekend and then prepare for the procedure. Thanks to all for the encouraging words and prayers, and I'll let you know when I'm back in the cockpit. Mark Jankowski "

"Mark, Hope it goes well for you - make sure you are FULLY recovered before taking up with Globe again, it can take longer than you think. "

All the best to you Mark. We'll be thinking of you. Let us know when you're able to come back so we can set up a physical with the company doctor to make sure you're fit and ready for flying status again [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif[/img] . Take care my friend [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif[/img] . Mark

"Thanks for the kind words and prayers. I hope to be flying within a week or two after the surgery. I'll be off work for 8 weeks, so I'll get to build my hours for sure. I'm currently flying PO602 over the Atlantic for my scheduled June flight and have another leg and then an Atlas flight... I have been feeling well but know I must go through this. I have great doctors and am ready to get the surgery over with. Will talk with ya'll later! [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif[/img] Mark"

Best wishes Mark. I've had a little of the heart stuff myself. Don't be in a rush to get back to things too quickly. Recovery time is very important. There will still be plenty of that time off left for some good flying! [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/cool.gif[/img]
