A Quote Please...
Can anyone supply me with the quote that goes along the lines of the air being as inherently dangerous as the sea, but less forgiving? I've seen it with a picture of an old biplane hung up in a tree, but can't remember it properly.

"Aviation in itself is not inherently dangerous. But to an even greater degree than the sea, it is terribly unforgiving of any carelessness, incapacity, or neglect."

It doesn't....one small bit of excessively intense gravity...and the rule is put into effect.

Gravity is a myth. The earth sucks.
