So you feel turns and everything.

And you go over all sorts of emergencies and different sort of stuff.

But I think something interesting that I found going from being a pilot to being a founder

that's really helped me as a pilot.

When you're flying the plane maybe over Las Vegas and you're an hour out from LA,

you're already starting to think ahead about the landing in LA.

You're thinking about what the weather's like there, what runway you're going to be using, what the sort of arrival is going to look like.

So even though you're still over Las Vegas, you're kind of really thinking an hour ahead of time.

And I think that running a business is very similar, right?

Even though there's stuff you're dealing with today, you're dealing with things that are happening on a day-to-day, you're also...

thinking ahead and making sure that you're planning, uh, for, for the arrival.

So I think that's, that's something that, you know, just the training of being a pilot help helps in some ways of being a founder.

Getting to meet all very incredible people.

Yeah, absolutely.

I've flown quite a bit of people.

I think it's like, you know, there's the celebrities and everybody wants to hear about the people we fly.

But I think that really, um,

getting to know, on an intimate level, people that building these good relationships with the businessmen, the venture capitalists, people that really see private aviation as a utility and a tool for them.

getting to spend time with them, getting to talk to them, talk to them about my business.

These are just an incredible experience that someone like me who dropped out of high school would never otherwise get to interact with.
