Gary, Ricky, and Don...Irish Village, DubaiWe had a small reunion in Dubai this week. Gary, who retired a year ago from ATL, has been working at Baghdad Center for the past year. He was able to schedule a free day in Dubai while travelling home this week and spend his time with Ricky and I (Many thanks to his wife for sharing a valuable day with us).
We enjoyed catching up and sharing all the oddities of our respective locales and jobs, catching up on things back home, and just swapping some old war stories. Controllers are a tight fellowship...probably due to spending hours and hours elbow to elbow working hundreds of thousands of airplanes, trusting each other and watching out for each other.
It's always nice to see a friendly face so far from home...makes the world seem a little smaller, if only for one night.
