A Virgin America Airbus A320 now features the quote, "Stay Hungry, Stay Foolish" directly beneath the cockpit in tribute to the late Steve Jobs, reports CNET. The quote is taken from Jobs's 2005 Stanford commencement speech and was suggest by a Virgin America employee. "The 'Stay Hungry, Stay Foolish' aircraft name was actually submitted as a tribute to Mr. Jobs by one of our employees in an internal plane naming competition," said Virgin America spokesperson Abby Lunardini. Virgin has always looked to innovate the industry and it was the first airline company to offer fleet-wide Wi-Fi. It is also the only airline based in Silicon Valley, and the company likens itself to the late Apple co-founder. "The idea behind Virgin America was to reinvent the travel experience by thinking differently about design and service–we are known for the tech-forward amenities we offer onboard," Lunardini said.
