The 10th of December, the day of the Virgin of Loreto, Patron Saint of aviators, is a day of celebration for all those of us who are passionate about flying.
Although the origin of the celebration is Christian, the patron saint’s day goes beyond that. It is a day to recognise the work done by each and every one of the professionals who work every day to make the sector work. Yes, aviation is a colossal machine in which every small cog is essential.
In addition to pilots and cabin crew, there are the handling staff, flight instructors, controllers, cleaning staff and passenger agents. Also the security personnel, mechanics, flight dispatchers, engineers and scheduling department. Not forgetting human resources, operations department, marketing, IT, refuelling staff…. The list of professionals is endless.
To each and every one of you… Happy day!
