Flight Crew Appreciation Day 16 Jan 2009

It has been a while since I sponsored a Pilot Appreciation Day, but in light of the amazing flight crew of US Airways 1549, I felt that now would be an appropriate time to rally my friends in having a Flight Crew Appreciation Day.

If you are flight crew, I want honor you for the hard work and training you perform and endure in the name of Aviation Safety. To the many of you who just completed Recurrent Training, keep up the good work. You are good at your job. I saw evidence of excellent performance of emergency evacuation training demonstrated today in the frigid waters of the Hudson River- "Release seatbelts, get out! Come this way! Get out! Go, go...!" training wasn't in vain. Happy Flight Crew Appreciation Day tomorrow.

If you have flight crew friends, be sure to thank them and appreciate them on this Flight Crew Appreciation Day.

Thank you for your friendship and support,

Julie Vessigault
