d flying,I was a little gal barely twenty years old from N.E. Minneapolis flying into cities all accross this country...It was such a education along with great experiences..I loved everything about the job and the career.. I loved my co-workers both pilots and flight attendants.. we all came from different cities, different backgrounds and brought our own individual backgrounds to become a large great family. we were able to share fun times together on layovers...we would make our own fun depending on the city, the time we had and enjoy what the city had to offer...I loved New York, Miami, Seattle,San Fran, anchorage, Hawaii--you name it --they were all great--I was able to meet celebs to rock stars, pro teams, movie stars,and many wonderful normal ordinary people like you and me..I gradually moved into flying international and explored many countries in Europe,and asia...I dated men in Hawaii,Alaska,Montana,chicago,and yes, a few pilots...I loved all of the excitement and all the laughs and great times...again I can't stress how much I really grew up in this career ...Its been fun and I'm glad I participated..I woould change nothing...the world I work in is awesome and its made me the person that I am. and thats a good thing. I like the person I have become and I love life.
