The first time I had full control of a plane!

First time I had full control of the plane by myself and the instructor wasn't with me, I was like, "Holy… I mean, what do I do now?" I took off, and that we've done it so many times, but it's so different when the instructor's sitting there next to you. It's really scary.

Man, your acuteness of detail and attention to detail and everything that you didn't even think—every spark in your body just starts firing because you got to pay so much attention. Because I don't know how it would be today, you take out your cell phone, take pictures, videos, because everything is all electronic, computers.

It's so much different today. In those days, it wasn't like that; you didn't have those kind of things to take your attention away. Of course, you know when I touch down after I landed the first time, I thought I was Superman.

But during the period I was doing it, it got me concerned. But that kind of stuff really is what builds confidence. Because so many people don't think they could do so many things, and they'd be surprised when they try, which you can really accomplish.

As a man, what is your place in the modern world? Qualities usually associated with being masculine don’t seem to have a lot of value anymore. Strength is rarely necessary. Hiding emotions isn’t appreciated and can even be considered unhealthy. Self-relia…

Lorentz transformation for change in coordinates | Physics | Khan Academy

We spent several videos now getting familiar with the Laurence Transformations. What I want to do now, instead of thinking of what X Prime and CT Prime is in terms of X and CT, I’m going to think about what is the change in X Prime and the change in CT Pr…

Interpreting equations graphically (example 2) | Mathematics III | High School Math | Khan Academy

Let F of T be ( e^{2T} - 2T^2 ) and H of T be ( 4 - 5T^2 ). The graphs of Y = F(T) and Y = H(T) are shown below. So, Y = F(T) is here in green, so this is really ( Y = e^{2T} - 2T^2 ). We see F(T) right over there, and Y = H(T) is shown in yellow. Alrigh…

Multiplying complex numbers graphically example: -1-i | Precalculus | Khan Academy

We are told suppose we multiply a complex number z by negative one minus i. So, this is z right over here. Which point represents the product of z and negative one minus i? Pause this video and see if you can figure that out. All right, now let’s work th…
