Across the United States, families and friends will gather today to celebrate Thanksgiving. After some much needed reflection, our writing team has taken the opportunity to reflect on what they are most thankful for as it relates to aviation. Of course, we also wouldn’t be able to celebrate today without thanking our readers for their support this year.
