When the stakes are high, every resource, opportunity, and every bit of momentum can mean the difference between just getting by and truly taking off. The runway we leave behind won’t help us when we need it most. Are you using all of your runway? Or are you leaving some behind?

When my husband & I closed out our A-10 flying careers, it was hard to say goodbye. Between us, we’d flown thousands of hours in an awesome airplane with a mission that mattered. Leaving that behind was bittersweet. Do we miss it? Some days. But loving this next chapter too!

Pilot Induced Oscillation (PIO): when a pilot overcorrects to stabilize the aircraft but instead of solving the problem, you make it worse . . . a lesson I’ve learned in the cockpit and in life. When we resist the urge to overcorrect, we build a steady course toward success.

@kesskull The F-35 wasn’t built to take hits, it was designed to stay out of that low altitude threat envelope. It would have to do CAS differently than we did in the A-10. But if you don’t train for CAS then you won’t be good at it.

@AntoniMY1982 They had NVGs but also used the Maverick missile IR seeker for thermal imaging to track vehicles (before we had targeting pods).

@kesskull First step is being tasked for close air support so they are required to train for it. It won’t work if that doesn’t happen. More likely the F-16 will fill the close air support role.

@RodBorza We met quite a few of them when we were operating out of Bagram Air Base in Afghanistan. We also trained with many of them before we deployed. Definitely helps build trust when you get to meet in person.

A reminder this holiday season . . . focus on the things you can control, focus on what's most important first. Moments like this—seeing my son snuggled up with our dog on Christmas Eve—remind me to slow down, be present, enjoy the little things. They truly are what matter most.

Life and leadership rarely go as planned . . . challenges arise and uncertainty is inevitable. What matters most is how we adapt, overcome, and face our fears—because when the situation demands it, being prepared to take action makes all the difference.
