Aero-News: Quote of the Day

ANN's Quote of the Day usually derives from current news, though we reserve the right to pick quotes out of history that have a bearing on the day's events and issues.

Sometimes, you'll find them timely and in keeping with the content of the day's news... and sometimes, they'll just be thought-provoking.

Reader suggestions and comments are welcome... and if particularly intriguing, timely, or poignant, may themselves become future Quotes of the Day.

Let us hear from you, folks!

Aero-News Quote of the Day

Source: SpaceShipOne pilot Mike Melvill, taking the heat for a series of unexplained rolls encountered during Wednesday's X-Prize attempt. As the spacecraft was in the boost phase of its mission, moving faster than a speeding bullet, it rolled as many as 30 times while in the vertical. While observers on the ground were aghast at the unintended maneuver, Melvill said, "It was kinda fun."
