"There are old pilots and there are bold pilots, but
there are no old bold pilots."

"Keep the pointy end forward and the dirty side down."

"It is better to be on the ground, wishing you were flying,
than to be flying, wishing you were on the ground."

"The three most useless things to a pilot are altitude above you,
runway behind you, and a tenth of a second ago."

Flying is the second greatest experience known to man.

Landing is the first.

You can always tell when you land inverted...
