From 2011 (YouTube Edition): More Wit, and Wisdom, And Then More Wit From Rod Machado In the second of two pieces we’ve prepared from Rod Machado’s marvelous speeches at 2011 Women in Aviation Conference, Rod talks about (in addition to many other things) two issues of uncommon value to those of us in aviation… Confidence and Tenacity. This year’s Women In Aviation conference has always had much to recommend it… but one of the better ones that we know of… (dare we say it…) happens to be a GUY! Yeah… the WAI is definitely an equal opportunity event… especially when it comes to attracting talented folks from all over the aviation community.
