Already a week before the end of the seventh Tour d’Uetli (#TdU), it is clear that after the initial edition with 1000 registrants at the start of the pandemic, this will be the second most successful in history! Three #key #factors are repeatedly mentioned by the participants: 1) A #playful #experience without entry barriers 2) Exploration of previously #unknown #trails in #familiar #territory 3) A unique #combination of time-independent #running and #personal #encounters, both in the #real and #virtual worlds And our insider tip? Participate in the traditional Cheers&Beers along the route, where you can philosophize about the TdU in a relaxed setting while cheering on the runners.

Good on you LH. A great idea to assist/help PX to overcome insecurity or even fear when boarding a flight. The easier this is done, the better the outcome. Most important is to assure, that one can have full confidence towards the crew involved, to operate and take care of the flight. But never forget, before boarding a plane the (unsure) PX has to overcome some burdens like booking/information/ground handling. And exactly here you may find some of the problems, which can add on to the fear, "what may happen when we are in the air?" So as I see it, TRUST is the covering word, and this should be stressed, but can only be achieved in a "concerted effort" of all involved. 😊

As promised last week, here‘s 2/3 part of interesting questions following to the Embraer Executive Aircraft, Inc. exclusive business aviation event hosted by  Amber Jet Group and Union Aviation. 1. 𝐇𝐨𝐰 𝐦𝐮𝐜𝐡 𝐭𝐢𝐦𝐞 𝐝𝐨 𝐈 𝐚𝐜𝐭𝐮𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐲 𝐬𝐩𝐞𝐧𝐝 𝐚𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐚𝐢𝐫𝐩𝐨𝐫𝐭 𝐰𝐡𝐞𝐧 𝐟𝐥𝐲𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐩𝐫𝐢𝐯𝐚𝐭𝐞? Typically, you only need 15-30 𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐮𝐭𝐞𝐬 at the airport before departure, avoiding long security lines and crowded waiting areas. 2. 𝐎𝐮𝐫 𝐟𝐚𝐦𝐢𝐥𝐲 𝐥𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐬 𝐬𝐤𝐢𝐢𝐧𝐠. 𝐄𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐲 𝐲𝐞𝐚𝐫 𝐰𝐞 𝐠𝐨 𝐬𝐤𝐢𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐚 𝐠𝐫𝐨𝐮𝐩 𝐨𝐟 12-16 𝐟𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐝𝐬. 𝐀𝐧𝐝 𝐰𝐞 𝐥𝐨𝐯𝐞 𝐭𝐨 𝐡𝐚𝐯𝐞 𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐨𝐰𝐧 𝐬𝐤𝐢𝐬 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐛𝐨𝐚𝐫𝐝𝐬 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐮𝐬, 𝐰𝐡𝐢𝐜𝐡 𝐢𝐬 𝐚𝐥𝐰𝐚𝐲𝐬 𝐚 𝐝𝐫𝐚𝐠 𝐨𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐬𝐞 𝐥𝐨𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐫𝐢𝐩𝐬. 𝐀𝐧𝐲 𝐢𝐝𝐞𝐚𝐬?  Amber Jet have the right aircraft for you! Embraer Lineage 1000 can comfortably seat 19 passengers on board. For example, let’s plan for the easiest access to Courchevel 1850 or Chamonix. 𝐕𝐢𝐥𝐧𝐢𝐮𝐬 (𝐕𝐍𝐎) 𝐭𝐨 𝐂𝐡𝐚𝐦𝐛𝐞𝐫𝐲 𝐒𝐚𝐯𝐨𝐢𝐞 𝐌𝐨𝐧𝐭 𝐁𝐥𝐚𝐧𝐜 (𝐂𝐌𝐅) - estimated flight time is approximately 3,5 hours. Next, let’s take care of the bulky skiing equipment - unlike many business jets, the Lineage 1000 features a sizable, externally accessible cargo compartment. This allows for additional luggage, bulky sports equipment, or even specific business needs. 𝐒𝐨 𝐬𝐤𝐢𝐩 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐜𝐫𝐨𝐰𝐝𝐬 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐬𝐞𝐜𝐮𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐲 𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐞𝐬 - 𝐟𝐥𝐲 𝐩𝐫𝐢𝐯𝐚𝐭𝐞 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐞𝐱𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐮𝐥𝐭𝐢𝐦𝐚𝐭𝐞 𝐢𝐧 𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐭, 𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐯𝐞𝐧𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐞, 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐭𝐫𝐨𝐥. #Embraer #businessjet #privateflying #AmberJet #UnionAviation

The 𝟏𝟏𝟏𝐭𝐡 𝐞𝐝𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐓𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐝𝐞 𝐅𝐫𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞 commences Saturday with its 𝐺𝑟𝑎𝑛𝑑 𝐷é𝑝𝑎𝑟𝑡 in Florence before heading into France a few days later. I love 𝐿𝑒 𝑇𝑜𝑢𝑟: the pageantry, spectacle, entertainment, athleticism, strategy, competition, personal stories, and the fact that—at our house—it often marks the beginning of summer. (NB: This year’s Tour starts earlier than unusual and ends in Nice due to Paris’ hosting of the Games of the XXXIII Olympiad in late July). I know many love and follow professional cycling and its grand tours. I’ve been reflecting a bit on how 𝐿𝑒 𝑇𝑜𝑢𝑟 provides potent analogies for all of us in our lives – personal and professional: 1. Like the yellow jersey (GC, or general classification) contenders, we must all 𝐤𝐞𝐞𝐩 𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐞𝐲𝐞𝐬 𝐨𝐧 𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐥𝐨𝐧𝐠-𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐦 𝐠𝐨𝐚𝐥𝐬, even when setbacks and challenges occur. This may mean losing some stages in order to win the race. It also means we can’t become demoralized when we have an off day—we get back on the bike and keep pushing with the long-term goal in mind. 2. 𝐈𝐭’𝐬 𝐚𝐥𝐥 𝐚𝐛𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐭𝐞𝐚𝐦. While we often focus on individual winners and personalities in professional cycling, the sport’s winners—whether in a stage, a sprint, a mountain climb, or otherwise—only get there through the support, backing, strategy, and protection of their team. Whatever successes we may achieve, we achieve them because of the individuals by whom we are surrounded. We all rely on teammates to get us to the top of the hill or the front of the sprint, or to the finish line in Paris (or, this year, Nice). 3. There are 𝐫𝐚𝐜𝐞𝐬 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐫𝐚𝐜𝐞. One of the most exciting things about a cycling grand tour is the races within the race. Of course, there’s the general classification overall leader (the maillot jaune, or yellow jersey), but each of the race’s 21(!) stages has a winner. Each stage also has intermediate competitions within it, including sprints, mountain ascents, the most aggressive rider, the fastest young rider, and the beloved 𝑙𝑎𝑛𝑡𝑒𝑟𝑛𝑒 𝑟𝑜𝑢𝑔𝑒. In any endeavor we undertake, there are significant intermediate pieces that we must focus on, excel at, and do our best with. And when we fall short (which we will), we try again tomorrow—with (see # 1) the big picture in mind. 4. Humans 𝐜𝐞𝐥𝐞𝐛𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐞 𝐨𝐧𝐞 𝐚𝐧𝐨𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫. Finally, watch the crowds at these stages. The fans are intense! They provide encouragement, adrenaline, cheering, enthusiasm, and support from the sidelines as these remarkable athletes perform herculean feats. I believe all humans are fighting their hardest to get to the top of their proverbial ascents in life. We would all do well to more genuinely and frequently cheer one another on with passion, love, and respect—to help each other complete our own personal stages, whatever those may be. Enjoy Le Tour! And 𝑏𝑜𝑛𝑛𝑒 𝑐ℎ𝑎𝑛𝑐𝑒 to everyone riding (and watching from home)!
