“Captain Rizalino Irizari had been flying from Davao to Cebu City in the Philippines last Saturday morning,” writes MSN.com, “a day before his 67th birthday. The flight had been delayed due to severe flooding and rain across the Philippines. So when the pilot left the Airbus A320 cockpit and walked into the aisle to pick up the in-flight announcer, passengers became anxious. But the captain, who is in his late 60s, then broke down in tears as he addressed those on board to reveal it was his last flight as a pilot.”
It’s an emotional, touching moment. Congrats to the captain.
