A huge Airbus A380 was crossing the Atlantic. The pilot of a fighter jet, flying at supersonic speed, spotted the Airbus cruising at 800 miles per hour at an altitude of 30,000 feet.
The fighter pilot slowed down when he saw the large plane. Flying parallel to the Airbus, he radioed the pilot and greeted him:
โAirbus, boring flight, isnโt it? Let me show you something different!โ
He then deftly flipped his jet onto its back, accelerated, climbed to a dizzying height, and followed up with a spectacular dive close to sea level.
Returning to the Airbus, he asked, โHow was that? Pretty cool, right?โ
The Airbus pilot calmly responded, โVery impressive, but watch this!โ
The fighter pilot watched the Airbus, but nothing seemed to happenโit just continued flying steadily at the same speed.
After 15 minutes, the Airbus pilot radioed back, โWell, howโs that? Impressed?โ
Confused, the fighter pilot asked, โWhat did you do? I didnโt see anything.โ
The Airbus pilot chuckled and replied, โWell, I got up, stretched my legs, walked to the back of the plane to use the lavatory, had a chat with the chief flight attendant, grabbed a cup of coffee and a chocolate fudge pastry, and then returned to the cockpit.โ
The fighter jet pilot sat in silence in his small, cramped cockpit, built for high-speed flight.
When youโre young, speed seems exhilarating. But as you mature, you learn to appreciate stability, comfort, and even a slower pace when needed.
