Fighting In The Air Is Not Sport.

The Sensation Of Dying Is Sweet, Sensuous, Placid. It Is The Easiest Thing In The World To Die. The Hardest Is To Live.

I Can See That Aerial Warfare Is Actually Scientific Murder.

The Smallest Amount Of Vanity Is Fatal In Aeroplane Fighting. Selfdistrust Rather Is The Quality To Which Many A Pilot Owes His Protracted Existence.

The Experienced Fighting Pilot Does Not Take Unnecessary Risks. His Business Is To Shoot Down Enemy Planes, Not To Get Shot Down.

Fighting In The Air Is Not Sport. It Is Scientific Murder.
