Read We Will Be Crashing Shortly Online
Authors: Hollis Gillespie
Thank you, Jacquelyn Mitchard, for refusing to let me give up. And thank you, Grant Henry, Lynn Lamousin, Lary Blodgett, and Michael Benoit, for allowing me to study you as amazing human specimens. And thank you, Polly Biasucci, Kate Hicks, and all the other big, bombastic, lovely senior flight attendants from the nineties who let me live among you all those years. I have never encountered such a strong, hilarious, flexible, seen-everything, surprised-by-nothing, boozy, partying, life-loving, adventurous, capable, accepting, intelligent, incandescent, and independent group of women in my life. You can’t fathom how fortunate I feel to have been allowed to be a part of that era with you.
