Airplane
Over the city in an airplane
I can see everything below
The houses they look so tiny
The cars look like dots
Weve only got fifteen minutes to go
The clouds in the sky caress my mind so tenderly
The sun shines down on the great big beautiful scene
The sound of the engine fills my ears up
Im hopin this rainy weather clears up
My lover is waiting at the airport
Soon shell be kissing me hello
The woman sitting next to me tells me bout her guy
And I tell her all about you and i
Airplane, airplane
Carry me back to her side
Airplane, airplane
I need God as my guide
Down, down on the ground
Cant wait to see her face
(a-1, a-2, a-1, 2, 3)

Morning aircraft trails
Wrap up pale pink winter sky
With soft grey ribbons.

I feel about airplanes the way I feel about diets. It seems to me they are wonderful things for other people to go on.

It's unbelievable what one squadron of twelve aircraft did to tip the balance.

Three figures of Beethoven
Hawks could teach bullets a thing or two —
see one precisely repeating
the terrified unpredictable zigzags
of a mountain pipit.
And gulls and aeroplanes — can a plane
turn over and backwards and
slam stunningly into the sea — to re-emerge
with a ruffle and begin unwinding
the same long spool of flight?
These are swift and beautiful. But watch
for the gull, the slow flier, the airy loiterer
that can pause, dead still,
curved on the air
like a hand on a breast.

I always felt Jimmy was trapped in Hollywood. He felt it himself. He loved aviation so much and he wanted to be able to do more of that. He somehow just got stuck here.

You can't imagine a world, quite frankly, without a safe and secure aviation system. And so our job is to really focus on that, and what we need to do to keep it safe and secure.

I don't want to talk about 'it'!
No thanks.
I don’t want to talk about ‘it’.
‘It’? F*cking ‘it’?

for something that’s bigger
than a f*cking aircraft hanger?
Your puerile insensitivity
Let me leave you with that thought.
Hanging in the air,

My movies were the kind they show in prisons and airplanes, because nobody can leave.

Airplane
Drifting though the atmosphere
And up into space
Leave behind the moon hes sitting
In his special place
Some flutterbies they enter and they
Play around in my soul
And once again part of me
Fills up to be whole
Da da day
Just flying in my airplane.
Peaceful colours everywhere
Purples and deep blues
Feeling so at home here oh
As if up here I grew
Its so beautiful up here now,
Oh I think I might just stay
All alone and by myself
So free and far away
Da da day
Im with my aeroplane
