E S   / A S   THREE QUESTIONS FOR CAPTAIN DUŠAN MRŠIĆ 3 Sećate li se svog prvog leta i šta vam je tada prolazilo kroz glavu? – Izdvojio bih dve situacije, a to su prvi samostalni let u malom jednomotornom avionu i prvi let u komercijalnom avionu. U oba slu- čaja to je uzbuđenje koje nisam uspeo nikome u potpunosti da doča- ram. Prvi put se samostalno kretati u tri dimenzije je trenutak za ko- ji verujete da vam otvara nov svet, momenat koji želite da podelite sa svima oko sebe i trenutak kada prestajete da zavidite pticama na bez- graničnoj slobodi. Sa druge strane, prvi let u putničkom avionu ostav- lja neizbrisiv trag. Šta vam ljudi kažu kad čuju da ste pilot? PITANJA ZA DUŠANA MRŠIĆA, KAPETANA – Sredovečan svet uglavnom komentariše strah i nepredvidive si- tuacije i vole da čuju kako to prevazilazimo, dok oni mlađi uglavnom na društvenim mrežama podele neki pejzaž uslikan iz aviona, sa ko- mentarom „kancelarija sa najlepšim pogledom“. Dok slušaju priče o

JOŠ JEDNA USPEŠNA GODINA ZA ER SRBIJA KARGO Rezultati u prevozu robe i pošte u 2018. godini su već petu godinu zaredom bolji nego prethodne. Preveze- no je 6.200 tona robe i pošte, uz povećanje prihoda od sedam odsto. Veselin Đorđević, viši menadžer za kar- go, izjavio je da su za Er Srbija Kargo od ključnog značaja dve destinacije – Njujork i Moskva. Kako objašnjava, JFK je važan zbog širokotrupnog kapaciteta i mogućnosti po- krivanja kargo prevoza preko Atlantika ka SAD, Kanadi i zemljama u Južnoj Americi, dok je Moskva najvažnija ka- da je reč o uskotrupnom saobraćaju.

našem uživanju u letu, oči im prosto sijaju od radosti. Koja destinacija vas je najviše očarala i zbog čega? – Svaka nova destina- cija me očara jer me moti- više da istražujem nešto novo, što je zapravo odla- zak u nepoznato. Iako se dobro pripremimo pre le- ta i upoznamo se sa desti- nacijom, pravo uzbuđenje doživljavam tek kad sti- gnemo na odredište.

ANOTHER SUCCESSFUL YEAR FOR AIR SERBIA CARGO

Results recorded in 2018 for the transport of goods and po- stal deliveries have outdone the previous year for the fth consecutive time. Last year saw Air Serbia Cargo transport 6,200 tonnes of goods and postal packages, with a seven per cent increase in revenue. According to Air Serbia Cargo Dire- ctor Veselin Đorđević, the two destinations that proved cru- cial were New York and Moscow. JFK Airport was crucial due to the long-haul capacity and capability of covering cargo transportation across the Atlantic to the United States, Ca- nada and the countries of South America, while Moscow has proved crucial in short-haul trac.

Do you remember your rst ight and what crossed your mind at the time? - I would single out two sit-

uations, and those are my rst independentightinasmallsin- gle-engine plane and my rst ight in a commercial airliner. Both cases represent excitement that I didn’t manage to fully illustrate to anyone. The rst time you move independently in three dimensions is the instant at which you believe a new world has opened up to you, an instant that you want to share with everyone around you, and the instant at which you stop envying birds for their un- bounded freedom. On the other hand, the rst ight of a passenger plane leaves an indelible trace. What do people say to you when they rst hear that you’re a pilot? - People from the world of the middle-aged largely comment regarding fear and unpredictable situations, and like to hear about how we overcome them, while young- er people mostly share landscape photos shot from planes on social networks, with the commentary “the oce with the most beautiful view”. As they listen to stories of our

enjoyment during ights, their eyes simple shine with joy. Which destination captivated you the most and why?

- Every new destination captivates me, because that motivates me to explore some- thing new, which is actually a way of heading into the unknown. Although we prepare well prior to a ight and familiarise ourselves with the destination, I only feel real ex- citement when we arrive in that destination.
