This quote is from an interview in the April 2016 issue of AOPA Pilot magazine. It’s good to remember (almost none of us) are flying missions vital for national security. We can wait out any storm. Caitlyn, a pilot and former Olympic athlete now more famous for popular TV exploits, also says: “Learning to fly the airplane was easy. It was everything else one has to learn that was challenging.”
(Quote is from a 15 March 2016 Rolling Stone interview.) Lots of science now adding to lots of personal testimonies that a little meditation every day reaps huge rewards in life. Better focus, better calm attention, less distracted. All this can make you a better pilot. So why don’t aren’t more people trying it?
No better place to practice laser-like focus than the cockpit.
Michael Goulian is an airshow pilot and Red Bull racer. This quote is from a great little video by Bose about ‘why I fly’ (and Bose headsets).
