Neil Armstrong Flying Quotations

Gliders, sail planes, they're wonderful flying machines. It's the closest you can come to being a bird.

I thought the attractions of being an astronaut were actually, not so much the Moon, but flying in a completely new medium.

Pilots take no special joy in walking. Pilots like flying.

Every flying machine has its own unique characteristics, some good, some not so good. Pilots naturally fly the craft in such a manner as to take advantage of its good characteristics and avoid the areas where it is not so good.

In flying, the probability of survival is inversely proportional to the angle of arrival.
