Aviation is for the common man. My goal is to enable everyone to fly. It shouldn't be only for the rich.

You can't imagine a world, quite frankly, without a safe and secure aviation system. And so our job is to really focus on that, and what we need to do to keep it safe and secure.

To invent an airplane is nothing. To build one is something. But to fly is everything.

I think we built the right future. If it's a choice between the flying car or the Internet, tablets and smartphones, I'll take what we've got.

The men and women who make up a plane's crew put their lives in jeopardy each time they fly. It's our job as much as anyone's to make sure we make it as safe as possible up there for them.

Really, anyone can learn how to fly. If you can drive a bus, you can fly an airplane.

Humans have a proven track record in taking over planes by the use of threats, which work because the legitimate pilots value their own lives and those of their passengers.

We can make aircrafts that can navigate a maze of hallways.

If we did not have such a thing as an airplane today, we would probably create something the size of N.A.S.A. to make one.

We don't have the capability today to put a human being in space of any kind, shape or form, which is absolutely, totally unacceptable when we got the greatest flying machine in the world sitting down at Kennedy in a garage there with nothing to do.
