Dear readers,
As summer winds down once again, we shift gears from lazy summer days to the back-to-school and work grinds. As pilots, we know September is our slowest month of the year owed to exactly that ¬– school starting and the end to our biggest travel season. I try to find comfort in the predictability of the cycles of our lives.
This month, we take a look at pilots helping others by volunteering their time, talents and their planes to transport people in need. I encourage you to read our feature to gain an understanding of the heroic work done by these aviators. For those who volunteer in this way, we all thank you.
This month we observe another anniversary of 9/11 and we are all reminded of the devastation and destruction of that tragic day. Imbedded in my memory is the smoke rising from NYC that could be seen for miles and miles. Never Forget.

Fly safe,
