Flash from the past!
One of my many jobs included instructing on the 737 at Premair (while flying for Northwest Airlines). We had daughters to put through college, so the second job was a must. But that second job did more than expected. I just received an email from a student from many years ago.
737 Training 2006
Hi Karlene,
It's been a while since
you did my initial B737 TR, and I will never forget the simulator
training we did in Seattle with PremAir. You gave me such confidence
that I can fly the B737 and finally, after exactly 8 years, I can share
with you that I checked out as a captain on the A320 with SilkAir
(Singapore Airlines) a few months ago.
A dream realized thanks to your initial support!
Kind regards,
Sebastian

Each day we all impact the life of others. It may not be through formal teaching events, but you are making a difference. And it's fun when you hear about them later.
What are you doing today to help someone achieve their dreams?
Today: Thank A Teacher
Enjoy the Journey!
