Subject: Jet Airways B77 Captains
Mark, 
I have been working with Aasiya and have found her to be hard working, professional, and  honest. I highly recommend her if anyone is interested in this position. Personally, I view it as a good way to come home, and finish out a career after years of working outside the USA.
If anyone has any questions, feel free to contact Aasiya or myself.
Mike

Best duct tape story ever...
During a private fly-in fishing excursion into the
Alaskan wilderness, the chartered pilot and fishermen
left a cooler with bait in the plane. And a bear smelled it.
This is what it did to the plane...
 

The pilot used his radio and had another pilot
bring him two new tires, three cases of duct tape,
and a supply of sheet plastic. He then patched
the plane together, and FLEW IT HOME!



Duct tape -------- Never leave home without it..
