Yup, that's him. The "act" is all about "energy management", a topic
nearNdear to pilots' hearts; it's most fundamental and mundane aspect is
"can you get to an alternate airport from wherever you happen to find
yourself in need". Knowing how to convert just the right amount of
potential energy (aka "altitude") into kinetic energy (aka "airspeed")
is a highly prized skill. Space Shuttle pilots have to be VERY good at
energy management, for example. Heh.

Probly somewhat akin to developing the finesse of speed/cornering/brake
management in road-racing? Same sorta fun, being propelled somewhere via
motive power, *with finesse*, I warrant. :)
