Letter to the Editor: Two Articles Worth Applauding

Posted on May 1, 2026May 1, 2026 by mwflyer

I wanted to give a shout out for two of the articles in this month’s edition.

First, the story by Bob McDaniel. It’s kind of funny how it is the same story (almost) for every one of us who fly. However, every time I read one of these, it brings a giant smile to my face. What a great tale by Bob.

Second, the article by Dean Zakos is a very valuable gem. That cruise time can be oh so useful if one exercises some of the items Dean calls out in his article. This one I will be sharing with all of my students.

Thanks to those two gentlemen for some excellent contributions.
