Serendipity between Philadelphia and DC - anyone work for US Airways?!?!
I was on a US Airways flight today and made a wonderful connection with the pilot for my flight. He was cute, handsome, and appears to be charming. The reason I say appears is because I was never afforded the opportunity to speak with him even though we ended up in the same areas three times.
Since I am NOT a stalker I don't know how on earth I can touch base with him or if its even possible. I have no idea what his name is but I DO know he lives around the Charlottee, NC area since they announced that the crew is from that area. (Reitterated by the fact that I watched him board another US Airways flight 933 from DCA to charlotte about 3:00pm today) He is about 6'2"-6'4", short dark brown/black hair, between age 24-30. Things I noticed: He was wearing two rubber bracelets with his uniform (similar to the live strong bracelets) had lots of stickers on his carryon box the biggest one being a DC sticker, has a white cellphone and had a great smile.
I know it is crazy but I can't stop thinking about him and I am kicking myself a million times over for not just walking up to him. For the same reason he may have been uncomfortable I felt bad about approaching him at his job. How dumb, the one time I should have been impulsive.
I have my flight number date and time the flight occured. I know there are a number of security reasons why I probably won't be able to touch base with him but I figured asking is worth a shot. Any suggestions?

1. Welcome to FT!
2. This thread is probably better off in the US forum or Omni. Trip reports is a way for us to share detailed, and often photo-laden, reports on experiences flying on various carriers.
3. As an aside, I've been in a similar boat. Back in June I flew AF J to CDG for the Paris Airshow, hand carrying my uniform. There was a fairly attractive FA who smiled at me as she walked by my seat, but we never really spoke. Fast forward to waiting to buy tickets at the CDG RER station, now in uniform, and I get spotted by said FA. She walks over, asks if I'm going to Le Bourget for the airshow ("are you flying today?"), points out that she's going there too, and pretty much does everything in the book to hint that we should go to her place. Naturally, me being out of it from lack of sleep/too focused on getting to the airshow, didn't catch on to this fact until she had already headed off. C'est la vie. So, anyways, embrace the suck, drive on, and maybe you'll run into this pilot again, and maybe you won't.

Did you notice a wedding band perhaps?
