You fly. You aviate. You do everything you can to get the aircraft safely on the ground. — © Tammy Duckworth
You fly. You aviate. You do everything you can to get the aircraft safely on the ground.
When you have a fire in an aircraft, there's no place to go, exactly, there's no - and you can't find any oxygen from outside the aircraft to get in the aircraft, because the windows don't open. I don't know why they don't do that. It's a real problem.
If you can fly an airplane competently, you can fly it safely even if something does happen.
We all fly. Once you leave the ground, you fly. Some people fly longer than others.
Pilots have their names painted just beneath the canopy of their aircraft. This gives the pilot a sense of ownership for his or her jet. What's more, like cars, each aircraft has its own personality, so it's important for a pilot to get to know and love his aircraft.
I fly a light aircraft.
I've spent my life as an airplane mechanic, pilot, aircraft manufacturer and airline CEO who never lost a life or an airplane. I am considerate of the risk we take every time we fly. I also know we need to fly and always to improve safety.
I loved flying as much as I thought I would and continue to fly aircraft.
I would like to mention that I have flown the 262 first in May '43. At this time, the aircraft was completely secret. I first knew of the existence of this aircraft only early in '42 - even in my position. This aircraft didn't have any priority in design or production.

I was the first woman Marine to fly in an F-18 in combat, and I got to land on aircraft carriers.
Life is only worth living because we hope it will get better and we'll all get home safely. But you tried and you did not get home safely. You did not get home at all.
Airlines need staff to fly and maintain their aircraft. They need to pay applicable taxes and gate fees. They need to buy new planes, repair worn-out parts, manage their company pension plan, and everything else a service industry has to do. But by far, the largest chunk of their non-payroll operating budget goes to fuel. That's what costs the most for any given flight.
If you're in a confined aircraft; when one person sneezes, it goes all the way through the aircraft.
Nothing can stop the attack of aircraft except other aircraft.
In any aircraft you fly, you always think about what can go wrong, and you plan for it in advance. You always have back-up plans.
On dispersive ground, therefore, fight not. On facile ground, halt not. On contentious ground, attack not. On open ground, do not try to block the enemy's way. On the ground of intersecting highways, join hands with your allies. On serious ground, gather in plunder. In difficult ground, keep steadily on the march. On hemmed-in ground, resort to stratagem. On desperate ground, fight.
