You'll be flying the wings off that thing before you know it. You got to be
flying it by July so you can come eat some pig, cow, and various other meats

Bob:
I snapped a few pix today; it looks like IFR out the right window, but on
the other side it looks right.The sun washes over 32 year old Cessna 150
windows in funny ways sometimes I guess.The windshield has to have been
replaced because you really can't see out the back window it is so hazy.
No
more 150 pictures-the next flying pictures you get from me will be from a
Tailwind. it may take a while.

The poem itself is in the FAQ. But not the FAA annotated version.
Oh, I have slipped the surly bonds of earth(1),
And danced(2) the skies on laughter silvered wings;
Sunward I've climbed(3) and joined the tumbling mirth(4)
Of sun-split clouds(5) and done a hundred things(6)
You have not dreamed of -- Wheeled and soared and swung(7)
High in the sunlit silence(8). Hov'ring there(9)
I've chased the shouting wind(10) along and flung(11)
My eager craft through footless halls of air.
Up, up the long delirious(12), burning blue
I've topped the wind-swept heights(13) with easy grace,
Where never lark, or even eagle(14) flew;
And, while with silent, lifting mind I've trod
The high untrespassed sanctity of space(15),
Put out my hand(16), and touched the face of God.
(from John Gillespie Magee Jr., "High Flight")
FAA SUPPLEMENT to "High Flight"
1. Pilots must insure that all surly bonds have been slipped entirely
before aircraft taxi or flight is attempted.
2. During periods of severe sky dancing, crew and passengers must keep
seatbelts fastened. Crew should wear shoulderbelts as provided.
3. Sunward climbs must not exceed the maximum permitted aircraft
ceiling.
4. Passenger aircraft are prohibited from joining the tumbling mirth.
5. Pilots flying through sun-split clouds under VFR conditions must
comply
with all applicable minimum clearances.
6. Do not perform these hundred things in front of Federal Aviation
Administration inspectors.
7. Wheeling, soaring, and swinging will not be attempted except in
aircraft
rated for such activities and within utility class weight limits.
8. Be advised that sunlit silence will occur only when a major engine
malfunction has occurred.
9. "Hov'ring there" will constitute a highly reliable signal that a
flight
emergency is imminent.
10. Forecasts of shouting winds are available from the local FSS.
Encounters
with unexpected shouting winds should be reported by pilots.
11. Pilots flinging eager craft through footless halls of air are
reminded
that they alone are responsible for maintaining separation from
other
eager craft.
12. Should any crewmember or passenger experience delirium while in the
burning blue, submit an irregularity report upon flight termination.
13. Windswept heights will be topped by a minimum of 1,000 feet to
maintain
VFR minimum separations.
14. Aircraft engine ingestion of, or impact with, larks or eagles should
be
reported to the FAA and the appropriate aircraft maintenance
facility.
15. Aircraft operating in the high untresspassed sanctity of space must
remain
in IFR flight regardless of meteorlogical conditions and visibility.
16. Pilots and passengers are reminded that opening doors or windows in
order
to touch the face of God may result in loss of cabin pressure.
