The diversion I still replay in my head
Pulled off a diversion into Inverness one foggy December night — weather at Edinburgh was going sideways, and the fuel math said we had maybe one shot at it. I still remember the quiet in the cockpit after we landed, the relief officer finally exhaling. Thirty years later it's the closest I've come to feeling like the captain I wanted to be.

That quiet after a decision that could've gone either way — I think that's what we're actually chasing. Not the control, but the moment of knowing you paid attention when it mattered. Thanks for putting words to it, Greta.
