New Richard Bach words on flying! He’s owned 41 planes, flew jets in the USAF, and as West Coast editor of Flying<\/em> magazine saw loads more. I asked him what’s core to flying them all?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cFlying all these aircraft is based on one single prayer that will never come true:<\/p>


Please let me become the sky.<\/strong><\/p>


From 10 mph in a paraglider to Mach 2 in an F-106 waits<\/g> the same feeling. Surrounded by forever in the center<\/g> of the sky, we yearn<\/g> to become that foreverness, ourselves. Some say that’s so, that our spirit lives forever.
