“I’ve always wanted to fly an airplane. Whenever I go on a trip on an aircraft I’ve always wondered what it feels like to be the one in the cockpit, as a pilot.” Sound familiar? It is actually very common for children to have dreams of wanting to become an airline pilot, in fact, that is where it all began.
