Thanks for Flying With USAF Airlines

I always thought it was very friendly and considerate for pilots and stewardesses to stand at the doorway and greet you as you leave the plane. I got to play that role today and realized they are prolly doing it cuz its some of the best people watching you get. Most of the pax didn't know I was watching them, it was hilarious as they stepped out of the doorway onto the ramp. Each of them would pause momentarily looking around as their body language said "do I really want to step into this country or just get back on the plane and hope it goes somewhere else" I lost count of how many people bumped their heads/helmets getting out. It was a fun ending to the day. We've been flying nights lately, I miss the sun, but not the heat.

A good pilot would advise them to watch their heads. May get U more flights.
Know the feeling well, what am I doing here, do I really want to be here, the sights, the unknowing, and the oppressive heat & smell.
Always enjoy UR comments & perspective.
Thank-you for UR contribution to the Freedom of Our Nation!!
