Some careers leave a legacy. Some pass it on. ❤️✈️

After 40 years in the skies, Captain Bridget Van Scoy completed her final flight surrounded by the people who mean the most, including her son and daughter — both American pilots.

With 22 loved ones on board, a water cannon salute and a homecoming filled with applause, her final landing was more than the end of a career. It was a celebration of four decades of dedication and the next generation ready to carry her wings forward.

Here's to Captain Van Scoy and a legacy that will keep flying for years to come. ✈️ #AATeam
