These photos of Southwest Captain Ted Orris's final take-off before retirement are really something, but the story behind them is even better. In 2015, Captain ...Orris noticed a teenager taking pictures of planes during a layover before one of his flights. He approached the teenager, Ryan Patterson, and invited him into the cockpit. This was the start of a friendship and mentorship that lasts to this day. . Fast forward to 2020: Ryan is now a professional aviation photographer and finds out that Captain Orris is about to retire. Ted told Ryan he wanted no festivities, and Ryan said he unfortunately wouldn't be able to join Ted on his special day. Secretly, Ryan spent hours planning and arranging the proper clearances to surprise Ted with a helicopter shot of Ted's final take-off, something that Ted had always said he wanted. . Finally, the big day arrived. Ryan drove 7 hours to Raleigh-Durham and got into position in the helicopter, with Ted still none of the wiser. At the last moment before push off, Ryan sent Ted a text that said "Look up and wave!" Swipe to see the amazing results. Congratulations to Captain Orris on a wonderful career and a special retirement. #SouthwestHeart
