Pilots, Their Stories, and Sometimes Their Wives...

On a recent business trip, I was having lunch with the customer in a food court near his offices. We talked of our careers, including my days in the Air Force when I was right out of college.

A women near us leaned in and asked if she had heard that I had been in the military. I confirmed and she told me of her husband’s military aviation career and of an aviation museum nearby she suggested I visit.

As we were getting up to leave, I asked her if she knew the answer to the old question, “How do you know if there’s a pilot in the room?” She quickly finished the joke with the reply, “Oh, you don’t have to wonder. They’ll tell you.”

​But then she turned the conversation back on me by asking if I knew how to tell if you’re on a date with a pilot? She answered with “When they say, ‘But enough about me, now let’s talk about airplanes.’”

I love meeting people!
