A lot of kids nowadays have been dreaming to work in aircraft industry. We should definitely get inspired by the story of Arthur Loring! he had been through a lot, obviously. At first he was not expecting to be working in this industry because he has a different dream from that. But when destiny dictates where you should set your foot, there's no such thing you can do but to follow where your heart truly belong. I am sure that there's nothing he can ask for right now.
