Yeah but it never stopped him flying. By to. Catch. Something super re was a writer but not a very good pilot he made a lot of mistakes and wrecked a lot of planes. I know sure of every day of the quarter for the idea that he was a poor pilot needs to be revised it was a decent pilot in fact with over seven thousand flying hours under his belt planes were pretty unreliable back then which explains is a frequent crashes as he was famously any difficulties he had became public. But that you really couldnt he might have been a little absent minded mind which can be a problem in the air to want to afford them produced but he was a pretty adept pilot on the you want to know what may or june prospects a template for.

A plane may just be a machine but what an analytical instrument it is. It has unveiled the true face of the earth but a cruel light has blazed and our sight has been sharpened the plane has told us to travel as the crow flies. We have now been transformed into physicists biologists students of the civilizations that beautified the depths of valleys now and again by some miracle bloom like gardens where the climate allows. We can now judge man in cosmic terms scrutinize him through our port holes through instruments of the bar a tree. Of. Sand tax as his comrades called him was eager to capture the world of the aviator what he saw were challenges to be overcome.

Just sent exupery had all the prerequisites to make a good pilot and a lot more designs. He had outstanding skills as a communicator does he have to do as a chief of the cap to be airbases he was a skillful negotiated between the natives and the fort. Vaguely moving forwards but your he was a good diplomat. Diplomat and he succeeded perfectly. Eight years after the publication of southern male a film adaptation of the novel was shot in morocco. The stunt double for the lead characters flying scenes was none other than centric superiorly himself. Southern male and later the novel night flight incorporated experiences from the authors own adventures. If you look at the. Speculation for us he may not have been the first to introduce this guy to literature but he did introduce the socalled panoptic view the view from the sky the unique perspective pilots have of the earth. Sure that theyre on. Strong verna if theyre more than they do more. And that view is reflected in his writing style as one rolls will do. So for b. O. C. Things about the relations between human beings and the importance of body. The norm. It also shows for example and think how a knight flyer makes contact with all the individual dots of light on the earth of the fish from continent to continent from one country to the east road.

The earth teaches us more about ourselves than all the books in the world because its resistant to us self discovery comes when man measures himself against an obstacle to attain it he needs an implement the airplane the implement of the Airline Companies brings man face to face with the old problems. Since right. He did here to escape to the skies. But his writings also include that very particular perspective of being rooted to the earth. The pilot flying in his air corridor is him thinking about his mother and his friends and all the strangers as he sees the little specks of lights down below i see him when hes in the air before you he reaffirms his connection to the earth. So gestural voter suppression. Is keep. So imo its not just about adventure and. He said by theres also the question of domestic police. In valan and those two worlds clash on the one hand the urge to go beyond your limits and sees the world. From very different after. Thats and on the other you have the domestic factor looking for blease through limitations. Of. Who. Sent it simply experienced that notion of bliss. And comfort in his childhood at the chateau de la mole the trees in the palace grounds became his friends and confidantes. Those images would later resurface in his famous drawings for the Little Prince. If you want to stab us in the pilot is tinkering away at his playing his only worry is taking off again quickly and suddenly he hears a voice and thinks no way im alone and nobody lives in the desert. And. Then he turns around and sees the Little Prince and prince on there and the prince asks him to draw a sheep for him so first he gets a bit confused i. Seem to play this in. This in more im.

So but its a very good was the cold on seymour is the most intense memento we have of him crash twice in it. In one nine hundred thirty five while attempting to set a new record time for a cross desert route and the other time on his way to tierra del fuego. Centex ago he felt a kind of urge considering himself on a mission to accomplish something more important he wrote and he reflected. That. He loved this plane because it was the first that had a real profile and could do three hundred Kilometers Per Hour. This cold on the sea moon one of just two still surviving is also on display at the aviation museum.

This is not a drawing from the book its a watercolor made later. For centex supervenience would you post of the Little Prince as a kind of communicator. He assumed that role in the real world that using it to charm beautiful women for example. He fell in love frequently. Like this while the Little Prince was his intermediary to the rest of the world. Has to do more into. Things.
