I grew up with heroes, people who made me aspire to raise my game, to dream bigger and I like to keep it that simple.

I always try to individualize everything, every person. I see individuals and that's why I've never fallen for racism, or any type or classification of people.

We are pleased we haven't got one on order. It's too big an aircraft.
