Saw a funny quote on the instrument panel of an S-1S Pitts we are re-building.......
"In the event those long things port & starboard fall off - Push the stick hard forward, bend over and kiss your ass goodbye! Now, there are a couple of good reasons for doing this..... First, you won't poke your eye out as you bend over AND secondly, it makes your descent far more spectacular and exciting!!" ![]()

Another one I saw on the front of the cowl under the spinner......
"If I'm still flying and you can read this - I'd suggest you duck rather quickly if not sooner!"

"There is no excuse for an airplane unless it goes fast." I came across that quote while researching my Gilmore Red Lion. It was spoken by golden age air racer Roscoe Turner.

Old Air Force lament: "The three most useless things to a pilot (Air Force)?? The runway behind, the sky above and a Field Grade Navigator".

Of course, then there is the pilot's creed.......
Thou shalt maintain airspeed lest the ground come up and smite thee!
