Re: goodwood breakfast club
开云体育Words of wisdom for Jake the Pilot;
?
? When a flight is proceeding incredibly well, something was forgotten. - Robert Livingston, Flying The Aeronca ? The only time an aircraft has too much fuel on board is when it is on fire - Sir Charles Kingsford Smith, sometime before his death in the 1920s ? Just remember, if you crash because of weather, your funeral will be held on a sunny day. - Layton A. Bennett ? I hope you either take up parachute jumping or stay out of single-motored airplanes at night. - Charles A. Lindbergh, to Wiley Post, 1931 ? Never fly the A model of anything. - Ed Thompson ? Never fly anything that doesn’t have the paint worn off the rudder pedals - Harry Bill ? Keep thy airspeed up, less the earth come from below and smite thee. - William Kershner ? Instrument flying is when your mind gets a grip on the fact that there is vision beyond sight. - U.S. Navy Approach magazine, circa W.W.II. ? The Cub is the safest airplane in the world; it can just barely kill you. - attributed to Max Stanley, Northrop test pilot ? If you’re faced with a forced landing, fly the thing as far into the crash as possible. ?Bob Hoover ? It occurred to me that if I did not handle the crash correctly, there would be no survivors. - Richard Leakey, after engine failure in a single-engine aircraft. Nairobi, Africa, 1993. ? If an airplane is still in one piece, don’t cheat on it. Ride the bastard down. - Ernest K. Gann, ? Though I Fly Through The Valley Of Death I Shall Fear No Evil For I Am 80,000 Feet And Climbing. - Sign over the entrance to the SR-71 Op office at Kadena AB, Okinawa ? The emergencies you train for almost never happen. Its the one you cant train for that kills you. - Ernest K. Gann, advice from the old pelican ? Never fly in the same cockpit with someone braver than you. ?Richard Herman Jr. ? An airplane might disappoint any pilot but it’ll never surprise a good one - Len Morgan ? To most people, the sky is the limit. To those who love aviation, the sky is home. ? The three best things in life are a good landing, a good orgasm, and good bowel movement. -- The night carrier landing is one of the few opportunities in life to experience all three at the same time. ? It only takes two things to fly: --- airspeed and money. ? What is the similarity between air traffic controllers and pilots? If a pilot screws up, the pilot dies. If ATC screws up, the pilot dies. ? It’s better to break ground and head into the wind than to break wind and head into the ground. ? The difference between flight attendants and jet engines is that the engine usually quits whining when it gets to the gate. ? A copilot is a knothead until he spots opposite direction traffic at12 o’clock, after which hes a goof-off for not seeing it sooner. ? Without ammunition the USAF would be just another expensive flying club. ? If something hasn’t broken on your helicopter, it’s about to ? I give that landing a 9 . . . on the Richter scale. ? Unknown landing signal officer to carrier pilot after his sixth
unsuccessful landing attempt: "You’ve got to land here, son, this is where the
food is." |
