And some of the other pilots heard it, and the nickname stuck. — Terry Gross

Airplane Pilots Quotes By Jennifer Echols

Most people hear an airplane in the sky and think, 'There's an airplane,' and go back to what they were doing.

Airplane Pilots Quotes By Deborah

What if airplane pilots said, 'my first three years were a wreck'? We worry about the safety of people at the hands of these other professions. Why don't we worry about children being at the hands of an adult, even a well-meaning adult, who doesn't know what he or she is doing? — Deborah
