Pilot. Spending too much time on the road. Opinions are my own.

On the 24th anniversary of 9/11, we honor the lives lost, the heroes who emerged, and the resilience of the American spirit.

America will never forget.

Today would have been my dad’s 74th birthday.

This season carries gravity. Father’s Day, his birthday, and the anniversary of his passing all fall within 60 days.

For me, grief has no straight path. It revisits, reshapes, and rises when I least expect it.

But alongside it lives a legacy built on generosity and kindness.

He made people feel seen. Gave permission to feel deeply and to laugh through pain. That mission continues.

To those carrying loss right now: you’re not alone.

Happy birthday, Dad. Love you forever.

Happy birthday to NASA's real-life #TopGun!

Scott Altman is a veteran of 4 Shuttle missions (STS-90, -106, -109, & -125), but before his astronaut days, he was an F-14 pilot. "Scooter" even performed stunts for the 1986 film Top Gun (featuring one of his other digits).
