    logo_sedonamuseum2Sedona AZ (February 28, 2018) – The Sedona Heritage Museum is hosting the next in its Living History speaker series on Wednesday March 14 at 10:00 a.m. at the Museum when local pilot Jack Seeley will present the harrowing story of a “Talk Down” of a small plane flying in the Verde Valley.

    On a Sunday in November 1983, four people flying from Glendale, Arizona to Sedona for breakfast at the airport restaurant ran into trouble when the pilot blacked out. The radio operator at Sedona informed Seeley, who had just landed from his first round-trip to Phoenix of the day:  there was an aircraft over Camp Verde with an unconscious pilot and there were no other pilots on the small plane. With Seeley shadowing the plane, he successfully talked a 78 year old woman on board with no flying experience through the intricacies of navigation, flight and landing. Plan to attend to hear the rest of the story.

    The Symbolism of Jan. 6

    By Tommy Acosta
    Don’t mess with symbols. Just ask author Dan Brown’s character Robert Landon. The worth of symbols cannot be measured. Symbols make the world-go-round. Symbols carry the weight of a thousand words and meanings. Symbols represent reality boiled down to the bone. Symbols evoke profound emotions and memories—at a very primal level of our being—often without our making rational or conscious connections. They fuel our imagination. Symbols enable us to access aspects of our existence that cannot be accessed in any other way. Symbols are used in all facets of human endeavor. One can only feel sorry for those who cannot comprehend the government’s response to the breech of the capital on January 6, with many, even pundits, claiming it was only a peaceful occupation. Regardless if one sees January 6 as a full-scale riot/insurrection or simply patriotic Americans demonstrating as is their right, the fact is the individuals involved went against a symbol, and this could not be allowed or go unpunished.
