- It fuses to the soul through adversity, fear and adrenaline and no one who has ever worn them with pride, integrity and guts can ever sleep through the `call of the wild` that wafts through bedroom windows in the deep of the night.
- When a good pilot leaves the `job' and retires, many are jealous, some are pleased and yet others, who may have already retired, wonder.

- We know, for example, that after a lifetime of camaraderie that few experience, it will remain as a longing for those past times.
- We know in the world of flying, there is a fellowship which lasts long after the flight suits are hung up in the back of the closet.
- We know even if he throws them away, they will be on him with every step and breath that remains in his life.
