For once, credit to AA for pulling off a spectacular event! 91 and still working... phenomenal! Talk about experiencing change... he has seen decades of aviation and of planes coming in and out of service!
This made me smile ear to ear. I'm so glad American celebrated him as he should be. Thanks for sharing, Ben. PS love your blog!!!
That was really nicely done, AA put a lot of thought and effort into that, and it's absolutely deserved.
Just want to point out to any skeptics...
American Airlines is definitely unionized, while I'm not familiar with the intricacies of the American Airlines maintenance worker's union, I can almost guarantee he would have qualified for their pension at least 25 years ago. He is choosing to work, and I wouldn't personally do that myself, I can commend the man for having found his passion and sticking to it for 75 fucking years holy shit.
Great stuff! Thanks for sharing.
This is one AA should definitely share via email.
