“Every pilot has two bags, an experience bag and a luck bag. When he first starts out his experience bag is empty and his luck bag is full. Every time the pilot survives doing something stupid or dangerous, he takes a little out of the luck bag and puts it in the experience bag. The trick is to fill the experience bag before the luck bag runs out.”
Kerry McCauley, Ferry Pilot: Nine Lives Over the North Atlantic.

“I hope you either take up parachute jumping or stay out of single motored airplanes at night.” - Charles A. Lindbergh to Wiley Post, 1931”
