Well, they might not even be, you might not be right. Yeah, they might be autopilot. Because autopilot, they can, I don't think they do, but the autopilot, they can land everything now. I'm not sure. It depends. Maybe they are, maybe they aren't. I'm always wondering. He loved his job. It was great. He was a captain and he flew everywhere. It was before Pan Am.

He used to fly all over the Asian Pacific routes. Those were his favorites. Did he have his own plane? He had a little Cessna that he used to pick me up at UC Santa Barbara in sometimes. Where did you grow up? Northern California, Los Gatos. Oh, okay. In the Bay Area. So you just fly down? Just fly down. So did you fly? I flew, but then I stopped.

And I still could, but I stopped because I'm a daydreamer. And I thought I'm a danger to myself and others. I should not be in a plane because I find myself driving and I go, wait.

And by the way, my dad was a lot like Sidney that way.

He's showing me how to fly. And just right away, whenever he takes anyone up, he just says, okay, you got it. And let's go of it and let you fly. And the story I would always tell, which contributes to my anxiety. I've told it a lot, but it's, he would say, okay, the engine cuts out. Where are you going to land right now?
