Thank you FAB! Pilots are human beings too. I appreciate your personality coming through.
A few of my favs over the years:
  • "I promise the number of good landings will equal the number of good take-offs today."
  • "The next time your travel plans are up-in-the-air, I hope you'll think of us."
  • (and from a LONG time ago) "We know you have a choice of bankrupt airlines, and we thank you for choosing ours."
