Lockheed Test Pilot

Famous quotes containing the words test and/or pilot:

    Wild roses, at your back porch, break their blood,
    And bud to test surprises of sea air,
    Howard Moss (b. 1922)

    With two sons born eighteen months apart, I operated mainly on automatic pilot through the ceaseless activity of their early childhood. I remember opening the refrigerator late one night and finding a roll of aluminum foil next to a pair of small red tennies. Certain that I was responsible for the refrigerated shoes, I quickly closed the door and ran upstairs to make sure I had put the babies in their cribs instead of the linen closet.
    Mary Kay Blakely (20th century)
