Aero-News Quote of the Day
"We have to learn to come together, to support each other, to make each other flyer’s problems our own and to realize that we, as a community, are an extraordinary group of human beings… FLYERS! We are deserving of a positive and prosperous future... but we must work for it -- united, we must choose to be led by good people who have our best interests at heart, we must participate personally in every possible way, we must learn to be honest with each other, and to empower each other to regain our former prominence -- and then go past and exceed it as a force of extraordinary people, all united by the fact we are something more than the average human being… we are aviators… and that is something quite amazing, indeed. BUT… until we learn to act together as a synergistic, mutually supportive community, we are our own worst enemy."
