“I think there is something exhilarating in flying amongst clouds, and always get a feeling of wanting to pit my aeroplane against them, charge at them, climb over them to show them you have them beat, circle round them, and generally play with them; but clouds can on occasion hold their own against the aviator, and many a pilot has found himself emerging from a cloud not on a level keel.” ThinkingPlayShowsFeelingsFoundLevelsBeatsRoundsCloudsCirclesFlyingOccasionsClimbsAviationPilotsPitsEmergingAeroplanesExhilaratingGreat AviationAviatorKeelPilots And Flying Author:Charles Rumney Samson
“Before I went to the Mess I made the excuse I wanted to get something out of my aeroplane, and climbed into the cockpit; I did this, however, to be able to say good-bye to the old dear; and I really felt dreadfully sorry to part with her. I get very attached to aeroplanes, and I am one of those people who think that they aren't so inanimate as we are told they are.” PeopleThinkingMadeAbleWantedFeltSorryDearExcuseFlightMessAviationByeGood ByeAeroplanesSaying Good ByeCockpit Author:Charles Rumney Samson
