Retiring Delta pilot never missed a day in 45 years
In 37 years, Flanigan flew more than 12.5 million miles to more than 95 different cities, amassing some 27,000 hours of flight time as he became the most senior pilot in the entire airline. The pilot, who never missed a day of work in all his decades, was looked upon as a role model by other Delta employees. (wftc.membercenter.worldnow.com) और अधिक...Sort type: [Top] [Newest]
Awesome, I hope Delta recongized that fact.
well done.....I hope he has a wonderful retirement
It's a hell of a note that a good, feel good, type story gets posted and somebody always has some disparaging remarks about it, more than likly envy because they couldn't do it or had a different attitude about it. That, however, is their right, just as it it mine to express disagreement. I personally think the man has made an accomplishment that many have not realized and should be congratulated.
Capt.Flanigan clearly loves aviation and persevered as a mechanic for 8 years with Delta before transitioning into a pilot slot. He still has that zest, that joy of flight and travel, which is why he and his wife have some sweet adventures planned around the world. As for the aforementioned remark by a certain ATP, well there are many who would love to take his slot in the plane.
they should name a plane after him
There's a couple of restaurants in FL with his name...
How about honoring the pension agreement that Delta made with him?
