I've met a lot of the astronauts, which was such an incredible experience. They're all very macho guys, like fighter pilots, but then there's a mysticism about them.
Pilots get made, and they don't go to series. Stuff gets written and never gets made. I've tried to develop stuff that never went. It comes and it goes. It's a part of the process.
The pilot who is always dreading a rock or a tempest must not complain if he remain a poor fisherman. We must at times trust, something to fortune, for fortune has often some share in what happens.
In the future, you'll simply jump into your car, turn on the Internet, turn on a movie and sit back and relax and turn on the automatic pilot, and the car will drive itself.
I've produced more pilots than United Airlines, and they've all been disasters. Every audition I ever took in my life I lost.
The philosopher is Nature's pilot.
Honest pioneer work in the field of science has always been, and will continue to be, life's pilot. On all sides, life is surrounded by hostility. This puts us under an obligation.
An airplane might disappoint any pilot but it'll never surprise a good one.
So, I'm happy to do that because it's a wonderful working relationship but I will be going out for pilot season for half hour work and that's the gamble I'm taking.
During my long investigation of these strange objects, I have seen many reports verified by Air Force Intelligence, detailed accounts by Air Force pilots, radar operators, and other trained observers proving the UFOs are high-speed craft superior to anything built on Earth.
The pilot cannot mitigate the billows or calm the winds.
Go in close, and when you think you are too close, go in closer.
On Thursday, a passenger forced his way into the cockpit of a United Airlines flight from Miami, but was subdued after the co-pilot hit him with a small ax. Good to see our airlines are being kept secure by the latest in 12th century technology.
If they (the young pilots) are on land, they would be bombed down, and if they are in the air, they would be shot down. That's sad. . . Too sad. . . To let the young men die beautifully, that's what Tokko is. To give beautiful death, that's called sympathy.
Skillful pilots gain their reputation from storms and tempest.
Death is the handmaiden of the pilot. Sometimes it comes by accident, sometimes by an act of God.
My family are doctors and pilots and people involved in indigenous First Nation land rights; not overtly artistic.
Most pilots learn, when they pin on their wings and go out and get in a fighter, especially, that one thing you don't do, you don't believe anything anybody tells you about an airplane.
Somebody said that carrier pilots were the best in the world, and they must be or there wouldn't be any of them left alive.
Nobody ever thought about having to protect the passengers from the pilots.
