Barnstorming in the 1920's, Boyd Kelly
|
"The life of an aviator seemed to me ideal. It involved skill. It brought adventure. It made use of the latest developments of science. Mechanical engineers were fettered to factories and drafting boards while pilots have the freedom of wind with the expanse of sky. There were times in an aeroplane when it seemed I had escaped mortality to look down on earth like a God."
-Charles Lindbergh, 1927
"I'd stepped to the highest level of daring, a level above even that which airline pilots could attain."
-Charles Lindbergh, 1922
