Quotes

"It was scary, but it was awesome," she says. "It changes your perspective from normal day to day, to experiencing it from the sky."
"My greatest challenge? I suppose to walk through the door and sing ‘It's A Beautiful Day In This Neighborhood’ when I have had a real sadness in my life. I had to go to Miami one hour after my father's funeral because they were having a Mister Rogers Day there that could not be cancelled. We had 23 fifteen-minute performances in one day. I had to sing ‘It's A Beautiful Day In The Neighborhood’ for each one of them.”"
Festivities are scheduled to begin at 10 a.m. with a free public lecture, titled "If You Can Drive, You Can FlyFly by AvSport's chief flight instructor, Prof. H Paul Shuch. This seminar will be followed by an opportunity to examine AvSport's primary Light Sport Trainer, a modern Evektor SportStar manufactured in the Czech Republic."
"I guess that's a double negative. I use them all the time. There's safety in negatives. When you're prepared for the worst case scenario, the double negative is your friend."
