We're ALL going to make mistakes as pilots. We're human. I think the best thing that we can do when we make mistakes is to tell others about them and learn from them. If we don't learn from them, then all they do is eat us up inside and make us scared to repeat them.
I want to share some of the moments that I look back and used to cringe just thinking about. But now these all serve as huge learning moments for me and I'm really thankful to learn from them.
