Performance Under Pressure



They're not on fire, they're gone!            

Lt. Colonel (Ret) Kevin Sweeney is the only person to have ever landed a KC-135, the military version of the Boeing 707, after the 2 engines on his left wing were ripped off in flight ... during a night combat mission in Desert Storm.

General Charles Horner, top commander of Allied Air Forces during the Gulf War, recently honored Lt. Colonel Sweeney, on the 20th anniversary of the eventful date: "I consider that the finest piece of airmanship to have occurred during the entire Gulf War."

We all have pressures, personally and professionally.

Imagine being the Captain of a KC-135 (the military version of the Boeing 707, a 4 engine jet), when, at night, at maximum weight on a Desert Storm combat mission, the two engines on your left wing are ripped completely off the airplane. This is exactly what happened to Lt. Colonel Kevin Sweeney. With help of his team and air crew Kevin flew the airplane back to base and successfully landed.

Kevin will show you how to put yourself and your team into position to handle the pressures we all face personally and professionally on a daily basis.
