Ever since the dawn of time, humans have marveled at the miracle of flight. What was once a pipe dream is now a regular occurrence as over 10 Million people around the world board an aircraft each day and fly somewhere. It is easy to take for granted how easy it is to traverse our planet with ease and comfort. Once upon a time it would have been a lifelong event to travel across a country let alone leaping across an entire ocean at will.
As a professional Pilot, I have had the honor of seeing the world from a vantage point that has brought perspective about this journey we call life. With over 30,000 hours or almost 3 1/2 years on a flight deck, I have witnessed some of the most beautiful sights anyone could imagine. Flying has brought me a sense of gratitude of the world we live in and the lessons it has taught me about life.
I've always chuckled at the one thing that gets a majority of the attention from passengers. It's the landing. Now don't get me wrong, the landing is definitely an important part of a flight but it's not all about the landing. We have all experienced those landings that are well let's just say, solid. Usually they are smooth as silk. When you make a good landing passengers are usually very complimentary but if you pound one on the pavement, be prepared to hear something like, "What was that?" Or, "You must be a Navy Pilot.
It's similar to our life's journey, usually no turbulence and our landings at the end of each day are fairly smooth. However, we all know that life can dish out some of those bad weather days and on occasion some solid landings at times. Even those emergencies that arise that we have to deal with like finances, health, families and such. Life however is a beautiful flight from pre-flight to the final landing and the journeys in between. The landing is the final act, the finale after the culmination of endless pre-flight preparation, planning and executing for an ultimate safe flight.
Every flight we do, we have to know which direction we're going, what's our destination. When we fly, we don't just put it on auto-pilot and fly off into the sunset hoping for the best. As we fly this adventure through life, we need to have a destination, a direction, a moral compass. Having a compass in life is key to success as we must constantly strive to maintain a moral compass, a direction of what is right and wrong, always attempting to make that great landing at the end. Setting goals and having a plan will allow us to have success.
Aviation has taught me to never give up. When I was in College I went to the Air Force recruiter to see about being a fight pilot. My dream was squashed immediately when they found out I wore contact lenses. Fast forward to later in my career and there I was as an Aerial Coordinator, briefing with the Blue Angels as I prepared to fly formation with them to film a movie called, "Lady And Gentlemen, The Blue Angels". I later went on to fly in major motion pictures as well as film the Thunderbirds and Canadian Snowbirds. Don't ever give up.
There are almost 8 Billion people on Earth and each one of us has a unique gift. Aviation has shown me that we should all reach deep inside ourselves and find those gifts and do something good with them. Don't ever let anyone stop you from achieving your dreams and always strive to "Reach For The Sky", so when you make your final landing you can always look back and say, "I Lived".

Instructions for revocation
Revocation right
You have the right to revoke this contract within 14 days without specifying any reasons.
The revocation period is 14 days with effect from the day,
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the products, provided you had ordered one or more products within the scope of a standard order and this/these product/products is/are delivered uniformly;
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the last product, provided you had ordered several products within the scope of a standard order and these products are delivered separately;
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the last part delivery or the last unit, provided you had ordered a product, which is delivered in several part deliveries or units;
To exercise your right of withdrawal, you must inform us (preigu GmbH & Co. KG, Lengericher Landstr. 19, 49078 Osnabrück, Telephone number: +49 (0) 541 / 580 72 84, E-Mail address: mail@preigu.de) by means of a clear declaration (e.g. a letter sent by post, or an e-mail) of your decision to withdraw from this contract. You can use the attached model withdrawal form for this purpose, which is, however, not mandatory.
You can also exercise your right of withdrawal online by clicking on a button labelled accordingly (such as ‘Withdraw from contract' or similar) on the AbeBooks/ZVAB website. If you use this online function, you will immediately receive a confirmation of receipt on a durable medium (e.g. via email) containing information on the content of the withdrawal notice, as well as the date and time of its receipt.
In order to safeguard the revocation period, it is sufficient that you send the notification about the exercise of the revocation right before the expiry of the revocation period.
Consequences of the revocation
If you revoke this contract, we shall repay all the payments, which we received from you, including the delivery costs (with the exception of additional costs, which arise from that fact that you selected a form of delivery other than the most reasonable standard delivery offered by us), immediately and at the latest within 14 days from the day on which we received the notification about the revocation of this contract from you. We use the same means of payment, which you had originally used during the original transaction, for this repayment unless expressly agreed otherwise with you; you will not be charged any fees owing to this repayment.
We can refuse the repayment until the products are returned to us or until you have furnished evidence that you have sent the products back to us, depending on whichever is earlier.
You must return or transfer the products to us immediately and, in any case, at the latest within 14 days with effect from the day on which you inform us of the revocation of this contract. The deadline is maintained if you send the products before the expiry of the 14 day deadline.
You bear the direct costs for returning the products.
You must pay for any depreciation of the products only if this depreciation can be attributed to any handling with you that was not necessary for checking the condition, features and functionality of the products.
Criteria for exclusion or expiry
The revocation right is not available for contracts
for delivery of products, which are not prefabricated and for whose manufacturing an individual selection or stipulation by the consumer is important or which are clearly tailored to the personal requirements of the consumer;
for delivery of products, which can spoil quickly or whose use-by date would be exceeded quickly;
for delivery of alcoholic drinks, whose price was agreed at the time of concluding the contract, which however can be delivered 30 days after the conclusion of the contract at the earliest and whose current value depends on the fluctuations in the market, on which the entrepreneur has no influence;
for delivery of newspapers, periodicals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts. The revocation right expires prematurely in case of contracts
for delivery of sealed products, which are not suitable for return for reasons of health protection or hygiene if their seal has been removed after the delivery;
for delivery of products if they have been mixed inseparably with other goods after the delivery, owing to their condition;
for delivery of sound or video recording or computer software in a sealed package if the seal has been removed after the delivery.
