“It amazes me how you come up with subject matter for your editorial. Great job.”
Wayne M. Bailey
Mr. Bailey sent an email to me after the last issue came out (see Readers Speak on page 8) stating he was amazed how I come up with subject matter for my editorial column. Here are what I think are the two most important factors that help me write my columns. First of all, I am an A&P mechanic. I have worked in the industry since 1988. Second — I pay attention. Whether it is at a trade show or touring a maintenance facility, I tend to listen and observe.

It amazes me how you come up with subject matter for your editorial. Great job. Your column in the July/August issue on loyalty was extremely interesting and gave me pause to think about loyalty and friendships. Hopefully, the two go hand-in-hand.
