 He had a program called Free Spirit, ... He split $1 million four ways between people who didn't conform to the normal. I did a couple of slow rolls with the X-1 (the plane in which he broke the sound barrier), and I guess he thought that qualified.

 He was in very bad weather and his airplane broke up.

 I have flown in just about everything, with all kinds of pilots in all parts of the world - British, French, Pakistani, Iranian, Japanese, Chinese - and there wasn't a dime's worth of difference between any of them except for one unchanging, certain fact: the best, most skillful pilot has the most experience.

 I was always afraid of dying. Always. It was my fear that made me learn everything I could about my airplane and my emergency equipment, and kept me flying respectful of my machine and always alert in the cockpit.

 I'll stick with Doc Bear. He knows what he's doing.

 If you want to grow old as a pilot, you've got to know when to push it, and when to back off.

 It's a payoff to John Glenn for his support of (President) Clinton and also the NASA budget. NASA needs the publicity and they couldn't have picked a better guy to hype the space program.

 Never wait for trouble.

 Rocket propulsion was explored -- specifically, a turbo-pump-equipped rocket made by Reaction Motors Inc. Delivering 6,000 pounds of thrust, the acid-aniline-fueled engine was believed to be capable of boosting an airplane to the fringes of the known performance envelope,

 Rules are made for people who aren't willing to make up their own.

 That room is really well laid out, ... It was sort of emotional to go through the display. You see a lot of things that bring back a lot of memories.

 The secret to my success was that somehow I always managed to live to fly another day.

 There's no such thing as a natural-born pilot.
