Back at it.




Well back at it. It was so nice to be home for Thanksgiving. It was very special. I miss you all so much.

This has been a busy trip. Not much time to do anything but fly and sleep. This trip has had long 14 hour days. I have been to Ft. Lauderdale, Memphis, DC (twice), Minneapolis three times and Raleigh Durham. I can't wait to get home. The pictures above are about all I have seen for the last three days with the exception of the break I had in Minny where we had lunch together. That was definitely the highlight of the trip, seeing you guys. See ya soon.

The Best Way to Fly



Our Private Jet
We make a good team!

This was the best way to go to work. When I can take my family along. I had a normal trip to New York, Tampa and DC. This trip the flights to and from DC were wide open with plenty of open seats and I was scheduled to have the day in DC free from duty. That gave us the day in DC. Karen and Austin came along and it was very special. I loved having them with me. We flew out to DC in the evening and they got to come up to the cockpit before we left and see my office and even got to talk on the flight attendants PA system. Austin loved being in the cockpit with me and I loved having him with me.


When I was walking around the aircraft performing the preflight inspection I looked up in one of the windows to see my beautiful wife looking out and blowing me a kiss. I will remember that moment for ever. It was so special having her on a flight I was flying. Definitely one of my all time highlights.
