Come Fly Along



The music is The Champions" track from "The Mass" by Era.


"If you will not fight for the right when you can easily win without bloodshed, if you will not fight when victory will be sure and not so costly, you may come to the moment when you will have to fight with all the odds against you and only a precarious chance of survival. There may be a worse case. You may have to fight when there is no chance of victory, because it is better to perish than to live as slaves." Sir Winston Churchill

That is a great video to watch and listen to. It has to be a grand thrill to fly a jet like that.

Great flying, l loved it. Exhilarating!!! Like flying NOE at 120 knots in a Huey.

[They taught me all I knew];
Their names are What and Why and When
And How and Where and Who
