The air up there in the clouds is very pure and fine, bracing and delicious. And why shouldn't it be? — it is the same the angels breathe.,, The natural function of the wing is to soar upwards which is heavy up to the place where dwells the race of gods. ,,Man must rise above the Earth — to the top of the atmosphere and beyond — for only thus will he fully understand the world in which he lives.
,,O to speed where there is space enough and air enough at last!,,All the calculations show it can't work. There's only one thing to do: make it work.,,Sometimes, flying feels too godlike to be attained by man. Sometimes, the world from above seems too beautiful, too wonderful, too distant for human eyes to see …,,The most beautiful dream that has haunted the heart of man since Icarus is today reality.,,There is no sport equal to that which aviators enjoy while being carried through the air on great white wings.
