Words for us pilots to think about.

From www.b737.org.uk:

One fine hot Summer
[move][i][color=Red]Any moment, everything can change, Feel the wind on your shoulder, For a minute, all the world can wait, Let go of your yesterday. Can you hear it calling? Can you feel it in your soul? Can you trust this longing? And take control, Fly

then there are those like me who will never be able to get their pilot's license that see a plethora of airplanes in the sky from small to grand, and wish that he could be one of them up in the blue.

Maybe ,but you know what is better than actually doing it?
Being able to dream it!!! With that ability you can do it wherever, whenever you wish!
Your mind can prove more orgasmic than anything in reality.

Nice story. :)

Although I'd be doin' those low and slow circuits in a warbird... 8) :) Stukas, Zeroes and Corsairs, oh my... ::)

I've often said simplicity is the key to life.  When's the last time you've marveled at a cumulus formation framed by intermittent cirrus and contrails?  I do it everday.  It's there everyday; it's nothing spectacular, but it just simple spectacular. :)  Simple pleasures are often the best. ::) ;)

Oh drats.  I'm back to my old habit of digressing... :P

I just wish want to be flying, dont care what I'm in. Though a nice new US fighter with my name on the side wouldn't be bad.
