Stars of Peace #11

 Welcome back for block 11, In Flight

This month's block is BB#1124, 
and attributed to Nancy Page 
(Barbara Brackman's Encyclopedia).

The original block name is Wild Duck.
I altered it to become a plane because,
for better or worse, aviation changed not
just how we travel but how we war.
As soon as man finds a new way to
do something, he sadly finds a way
to use it as a weapon.
Below are the links to how aviation
changed the world.
WW2
My grandfather was completely 
enamored of flight and wanted to fly
in WW2. Sadly, for him (thankful to us),
his eyes weren't good enough.
It was extremely dangerous.
He instead put his knowledge and strengths
to flight in another way by being a part 
of building the LEM that landed on the moon!

How does aviation affect your life?
