Three questions for...

First Officer Ognjen Vesić

Koji let će vam zauvek ostati u sećanju i zbog čega? – Svaki je let poseban, naravno, neki se izdva- jaju i ostanu u sećanju. Za mene je to svakako prvi komercijalni let, nakon završene obuke na simu- latoru. Kada uđete u saobraćaj, kada stvar postane živa i vidite putnike koji se ukrcavaju, onda posta- nete svesni čime se zapravo bavite... Dakle, prvi let u Er Srbiji je zauvek urezan u moje sećanje na naj- lepši način.

Which flight will you always remember and why? “Every flight is special, though, of course, some stand out and remain in the memory. For me, that is certainly my first commercial flight after completing training on the simulator. When you enter traffic, when everything comes to life and you see the passengers as they are board- ing, then you become aware of what you’re actually deal- ing with... So, the first flight at Air Serbia is forever etched

in my memory, in the most beautiful way.” What do people most common- ly ask when they hear that you’re a pilot? “There are lots of questions, as the job of a pilot seems to fas- cinate people. They most often ask: how do you become a pi- lot? Do you man the controls the whole time or do you use the autopilot? But there are also questions re- lated to turbulence and the unpleasant-

Šta vas lju- di najčešće pitaju kad čuju da ste pilot? – Mnogo je

pitanja, ljudi- ma posao pilota deluje fascinan- tno. Najčešće pi- taju kako se po- staje pilot i da li sve vreme uprav- ljamo ili koristi- mo autopilot.

Kao i pitanja u vezi sa turbulen- cijom i neprijat- nostima kojima su ponekad izloženi u toku leta. Koji je najveći kompliment za jednog pi- lota? – Od komplimenata svakako najviše prijaju oni od iskusnijih kolega i instruktora nakon završenog leta ili neke uspešne provere. Naravno, uživamo u pohvalama putnika u prolazu i aplauzima nakon sletanja. Takođe, prija kad vam neko oda prizna- nje za posao kojim se bavite, naročito ako imate na umu da do toga niste došli lako.

ness that they are sometimes exposed to during a flight". What’s the greatest compliment a pilot can re- ceive? “When it comes to compliments, the ones that feel best are certainly those coming from more experienced colleagues and instructors after the completion of a flight or some successful checks. Of course, we enjoy the com- pliments of passing passengers and the applause upon landing. Likewise, it feels nice when someone gives you recognition for the job that you do, especially if you bear in mind that you didn't reach that position easily.”
