Two weeks ago, I flew to Pennsylvania with some friends to see the Dallas Stars take on the Philadelphia Flyers.
As I was sitting on the plane preparing for takeoff, I caught a glimpse of the control tower and it got me thinking. When you fly, you probably think about the workers in that tower very rarely. They may not even cross your mind. Yet, without them, you literally wouldn’t be able to leave the ground.
But while they aren’t the first thing that comes to mind when you think of air travel, they probably should be.
