(More customer reviews). . . and you won't want to land. As a pilot (SEL, gliders, hang gliders and paragliders) and a skydiver (D-454), I find this book to be absolutely delightful. Dave English has researched nearly one thousand quotations, divided them into 13 categories and brought the words to life in an exquisite hardcover book. This collection will delight every pilot and will make an EXCELLENT GIFT. DanPoynter@ParaPublishing.com

From man's earliest expressions on the magic of flying to the chilling last words of some of aviation's giants, here's an utterly unique collection of 1,000 of the most memorable thoughts on flight down through the ages. Concisely capturing flying's special allure and excitement as well as its humor and tragedy, this power-packed anthology of quotations by Leonardo da Vinci, Lindbergh, Armstrong, Yeager, and hundreds of others amply illustrates why, as aviation pioneer Otto Lilienthal rhapsodized, "To fly is everything."
