In South Africa, you can get away sometimes because of the bounce. You may get away with full wide balls. In India, it does not bounce and finds the middle of the bat and goes flying to point or extra cover for four.
Flying small airplanes is not like being on airlines.
I took a Fear of Flying class, and I always missed the class, because I was always flying.
Did anyone in the White House or the N.S.A or the C.I.A. consider flying to Hong Kong and treating Mr. Snowden like a human being, offering him a chance to testify before Congress and a fair trial?
Like most manic depressives, some of my symptoms included racing thoughts that I simply had to act upon – flying from New York to Paris and taking the train to Berlin; flying to Argentina in the middle of the night; spending tens of thousands of dollars on unnecessary garments, dinners and gifts.
I hate flying, airports and the whole rigmarole – queuing up, security and lost luggage.
One thing that flying in space does for you is it gives you a change in perspective. We all have to live in the same place.
I worked after school and Saturdays to save money to take an hour of flying, even though I couldn’t solo.
I hate flying. It creeps me out, and it scares me half to death.
Boot Camp was great and very interesting. You got to use live rounds of ammunition and got to do a lot of crawling around with live rounds flying around you, so you really had to learn to keep your ass down – everything down for that matter.
There’s nothing interesting about seeing our characters for an hour and a half do some flashy flying in the sky and beating up on some buildings. It’s boring, and people don’t want that anymore. They want character, and they want story.
I played in a city in Brazil where there are only two big clubs and Internacional versus Gremio was unbelievable – the pressure, the team atmosphere and everybody flying on the adrenalin.

When I was a rookie, I was kind of just flying, trying to make plays.
When I was a kid, I’d wake up extraordinarily early every morning and turn on the television, scanning for episodes of ‘The Jetsons.’ For some reason, I loved the notion of a future where there would be flying cars, supercomputers, and most of all, robot maids to take care of the chores.
Flying, for some reason, has never been my favorite thing, but after taking some aviation classes and reading about it and learning about it… They’ve been doing this for over a hundred years, they’ve been to the moon and back; they kind of have a good system going here.
I really love New York. I just love the aesthetics and the spirit of New York. I’ve just always loved the energy of it. When you’re flying into New York and you look out of the window, it’s like you’re flying into another planet. I’ve never stopped being amazed at it.
I resigned from the Marine Corps and flying in 1974, even though I loved them both. I quit because I no longer wanted to fight for peace. Instead, I believe we can build a more sustainable peace by working for prosperity.

Flying back from New York, the flight attendant said ‘God, I wished you were here yesterday, we had a stroke on the plane. I said, if I have a stroke on a plane, I hope the pretend doctor isn’t the one on the plane. I want a real doctor.
In the early 1930s, flying from England to Australia was the longest flight in the world. It was considered extremely dangerous and hazardous, pushing pilots to the limits of mechanical skills and human endurance. Aviation was young.
I left the band because I developed a terrible fear of flying.
I remember flying in, driving down 101 in a cab, and passing by all these tech companies like Yahoo! I remember thinking, ‘Maybe someday we’ll build a company. This probably isn’t it, but one day we will.’

When you see the stumps flying, that’s the best feeling.
I’m terrified of flying and have tried everything from prescription drugs to booze and herbal remedies. The only thing that works is Valium. I don’t know why I’m so frightened – I think it’s from seeing my mum freak out when I was young.
But I have this vivid memory of flying over Borneo down the coast to Singapore. It was a two-hour journey in those days, and I remember looking out the window for two hours at this amazing canopy of unbroken jungle beneath me.
Every day, every time I sing, I feel blessed, really, to be able to do that. It’s like having wings, in a way. It’s a bit like flying sometimes, because you go off into another realm. And a whole lot of people come with you. It’s amazing.
Flying has been such an important part of my professional life and I love to do it.
Reading ‘The Third Sex’ feels a bit like flying in a veering helicopter over a rain forest that is disappearing before one’s eyes.

I’m not a flying fan. I can’t bear it.
My brain still recoils at memories of the tofu stir-fries in my college co-op. A student ‘cook’ made them in a wok the size of a prosperous Martian’s flying saucer, and, man, were they bad – steamy, crumbled bits of tofu and limp greens sloshing around in a warm bath of liquid aminos. I couldn’t eat tofu for decades.
And I agreed the feeling of action as he was flying or jumping or leaping – a flowing cape would give it movement. It really helped, and it was very easy to draw.
Flying Squirrel remind me of Ultimate Warrior because he a little rat when he jump in ring like that idiot Jose Canseco or Mel Gibson.
I love flying.
I’m not the guy who does slo-mo, or I’m not the guy who does splashing rain or doves flying or anything; that’s not me. Every film, I try and make it the way I see it in my head, and it really just depends on the script and the people I’m working with or whatever interests me at that particular time.
The people of this country remember me. I may have started dyeing my beard, but I am recognized at airports, railway stations – anywhere. School textbooks have chapters on me, and somehow the sobriquet ‘The Flying Sikh’ has endured in people’s memory.
If there’s any credence to the guy who wrote ‘Drones Over Blkyn’ a year before drones were flying over Brooklyn, then listen to me: we’re going to be in fascist police state.
When I started flying, I realized how enjoyable it was, and flying became my main focus while engineering went on the back burner.
I spent about seven years during the Vietnam War flight-testing airplanes for the Air Force. And then I went in and I had a lot of fun building airplanes that people could build in their garages. And some 3,000 of those are flying. Of course, one of them is around-the-world Voyager.
They don’t hand out Ph.D.s in test piloting, but you pick up a tremendous amount of scientific and engineering knowledge along the way. After all, when you take up a brand new plane and put it through its paces to see if it will hang together, you are really flying somebody’s theory.
My first inclination was toward flying and being a pilot.
I had my airplane, and I’d use it as a car whenever I could. If the drive was going to be longer than an hour, I was flying the plane instead. And in California, it’s really easy to have a drive longer than an hour.
I love flying and kind of just fascinated with it, and to fly something like an F-22 would be a blast.
It is in the national interest to have the Flying Kangaroo. It’s in the interests of our tourism industry. It’s in the interests of jobs here in Australia.
If I could push a button and get rid of all these dumb people flying Nazi flags and have them never show up – They are a big problem for the Right.
There’s a lot of trainers in my career, between Terry Taylor and Arn Anderson, who’ve always told me to keep my damn feet on the ring mat, and there’s just that little kid in me – I may be 45, but there’s that little kid in me that, if I get a chance to do some flying, I’m gonna do it.
A knee injury is never something you want, especially at the time that I got it. I was flying at the time.
Flying in space is a privilege, whether it’s the first time or the fourth time.
I hate flying. The first time I flew with my wife, Najat, was the first time I’d ever flown in my life, and that was just a short flight to Turkey. I spent the whole time with my shirt pulled over my head. Then I got used to it.
So while I was in college I did a little study on the freight industry, the air freight industry. And I looked at this company called Flying Tiger. And I actually put a thousand dollars in it and I remember I thought this air cargo was going to be a thing of the future.
I did make a solo album in my house when I was there. And because I was just afraid of flying, I wouldn’t promote it, and I wouldn’t tour. Actually, it wasn’t a very good album anyway – it got buried underneath the pits of Hell, I suppose.
