Grounding airplanes to cover your butt would never have let Orville or Wilbur change the world. We would still be spending weeks to cross the Atlantic to do business in London.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
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.
If the Wright Brothers were alive today, Orville would have to lay off Wilbur.
I would hate to be on a plane every day.
Flying is the only active profession I would ever continue with enthusiasm after the War.
Spaceflight, especially in the Mercury spacecraft, clearly wasn't going to be much like flying an airplane.
If the Wright brothers hadn't put their lives on the line, we would not be flying around the world these days. So we need pioneers.
A world with a sudden limit on air travel would be tremendously different from the one we live in now.
I think I'd like my own plane, stacked with all my favourite films.
The airplane has had a big impact on my life.
If the Almighty were to rebuild the world and asked me for advice, I would have English Channels round every country. And the atmosphere would be such that anything which attempted to fly would be set on fire.
