Mike Rowe
Flew Mike Rowe for some filming of a tv episode. Spent the entire day with him and gave him plenty of stick time. My wife picked me up from the FBO and when he realized it was her birthday and I had spent the whole day filming he sang her Happy Birthday (he is an opera singer) and invited us to dinner at the local bar that night. Super cool dude with zero ego. He's the same in real life as he is on his shows.

Flying troops from IND. the Colts Football Team traveling that day on another chartered airliner found out our flight had soldiers heading to the sandbox. The team came over and walked the entire airplane and shook hands, photographed, and signed autographs. We took the delay with a smile.

Her staff found out when our passengers, all soldiers dressed in desert camo, walked thru the terminal to duty free. I heard from our station personnel that she had wanted to greet the soldiers as they re-boarded our flight, but that she & her entourage were more interested in shopping for duty free items instead.
'Nuff said.
