FACT: Today is National Aviation Day in honor of Orville Wright's birthday. CONTROVERSY: There has been some debate on which state is worthy of the title "First in Flight". For those who call North Carolina home (such as myself) there may be some bias since the title is due to the legendary 12 second flight on Dec. 17, 1903, at Kill Devil Hills near Kitty Hawk, North Carolina. However, Wilbur and Orville spent most of their lives in Dayton, Ohio, where their outlandish idea of human flight were manifested into reality. It was there where those dreams turned to sweat that brought us to where we are today. QUESTION: I'm curious to hear from those who have a passion for aviation - past, present, and future - What state do you believe is most deserving of the title "First in Flight"? Today many may take these amazing machines for granted thanks to the wild ideas of those Wright Brothers. What also may be taken for granted is the crew members needed to operate these jets safely everyday. Do not settle for having "enough to get by" in your flight department. Let your crew get the support and rest they need and reach out to myself and the team at In-Flight Crew Connections should you ever need additional support in any of your business aviation personnel needs. Happy National Aviation Day.

Ultimately people make customer experience come to life even during the age of AI. Bette Nash, who worked for close to 70 years as cabin crew of American Airlines , is one of the most remarkable examples of how behind every company there are individuals, who make the difference and keep the brand alive. #customerexperience #brand #american #americanairlines #employeeengagement #aviation #airlines

Unintentionally, my entire professional journey has revolved around the maritime sector. Many of you may be familiar with my background as a vessel operator, bunker purchaser, and charterer. However, all my other roles have also maintained a connection to the shipping and maritime domain. Prior to becoming a maritime recruiter, I dedicated two years to building luxury carbon fibre yachts in Italy and Slovenia as a boat builder. Even in my early days while studying, I started off in the kitchen of the Royal Yacht Squadron, where my passion for cooking also took hold. I think its safe to say, that I am now in the industry for life. Have you ever envisioned yourself entering this field, and what steps can we take to inspire the next generation to join us?

In the high-stakes world of aviation, Flight Lieutenant Justin “Jug” Hayter knows a thing or two about the pressure of making split-second decisions. As a member of the Royal Australian Air Force's elite aerobatic display team, the Roulettes, he understands that nobody is immune to making #mistakes, no matter how skilled or #experienced they may be. So, how does one shake off a bad call and move forward without dwelling on it? Let's explore some strategies for recovering from mistakes with #resilience and #resolve. The first step in recovering from a mistake is to acknowledge it and take ownership of it. Instead of denying or deflecting blame, face the mistake head-on and accept responsibility for it. This mindset shift from making excuses to taking accountability is crucial for growth and learning. By accepting the mistake, you can begin to understand its root cause and identify steps to prevent it from happening again in the future. Every mistake is an #opportunity for learning and growth. Rather than dwelling on the negative aspects of the mistake, focus on extracting valuable lessons from the experience. Take the time to analyze what went wrong and why, and identify areas for improvement. This process of reflection allows you to gain insights that can help you make better decisions in similar situations in the future. Remember, resilience is not about avoiding mistakes altogether but about learning from them and adapting accordingly. Remind yourself of your past successes and achievements, and don't let one mistake define you or your abilities. Keep a positive attitude and focus on moving forward with determination and confidence. Recovering from a mistake can be challenging, but you don't have to go through it alone. Reach out to trusted colleagues, mentors, or friends for support and guidance. Sharing your experience with others can provide valuable perspective and help you gain new insights into how to handle similar situations in the future. Don't hesitate to lean on your support network during difficult times – their encouragement and advice can be invaluable in helping you bounce back stronger than ever. Flight Lieutenant Justin “Jug” Hayter's words serve as a reminder that even the most elite professionals are not immune to making mistakes. However, it's not the mistake itself that defines us but how we choose to respond to it. By embracing a mindset of acceptance, learning, and resilience, we can overcome mistakes with grace and emerge stronger and more resilient than before. So, the next time you find yourself facing a setback, remember: it's not the end of the journey, but simply a detour on the path to success.
