There is still good left in humanity.
Captain Jon Jackson was supposed to take his final retirement flight with Spirit Airlines today. But after Spirit's shutdown, he instead found himself as a passenger on a Southwest Airlines flight into Baltimore.
What happened next was truly special. Capt. Jackson was honored with a traditional water cannon salute and a surprise welcome celebration at the gate.
This is a powerful reminder that the aviation community is built on respect, compassion, and solidarity—especially when it matters most. Above all, this moment was about honoring a fellow aviator.
Congratulations, Capt. Jackson, and thank you for your years of service in the skies.
Well done Southwest Airlines 💙

🚨 NOW: Sec. Sean Duffy JUST WENT OFF on the Biden admin and Elizabeth Warren for CANCELING the Spirit and JetBlue merger in 2024 that would've saved the budget airline
Now we have LESS COMPETITION, despite them claiming the merger would've harmed consumers. YOU CAN'T MAKE THIS UP
"Elizabeth Warren cheered the BLOCKING...saying this was a 'Biden win for fliers.'"
"We CARE about pricing! We care about competition. But if the markets say there needs to be a merger because of health issues with an airline, we HAVE to make sure we make the right choices."
"History has judged the denial of the JetBlue-Spirit merger under Biden as a MASSIVE MISTAKE!"

“I don't remember any of the bad times, just the good ones… 43 years and unfortunately, that's over.”

There’s a parking garage right off the approach end at San Diego. I love flying there!
Delta used to put us up right down the street and once the other pilot and I walked over with a 6-pack of beer, went to the top floor, and watched the guys come in.
One of the best spots to plane watch in the country!
