YOU try being an air traffic controller! Try it for ONE day. And let’s see how YOU do.

I’ve never been there, myself, but I’ve known about, read about, and covered that industry. My dad was an Air Force pilot flying photo-recon during WW2, having admitted he “fell in love with airplanes” at an early age. My husband still has his pilot’s license even though he doesn’t fly anymore. My mom was a flight attendant back in the day - one of the first, back when they were called “hostesses.” I have a lot of respect for pilots and crews, understanding at least a little bit of the discipline that’s essential to that vocation. I’m the only “groundling” in the family.
