Love the Virgil quote Ice. you probably know it is the basis of several famous mottos, in particular Per Ardua Ad Astra. Through your efforts, to the stars. This is the official motto of the RAF, and several of its Colonial offspring.

Getting back on topic, this has also spawned a few notable quotes.

The rank and file of the RCAF always translated the motto as "Through bolts and bars, to the stars".

Those of us in the aircraft industry often use a slightly modified version on bad days at the office: "Per Ardua Ad Nauseum".

Latin quotes are are always interesting especially those based on Virgil for mottos. I made my own; "Navigo per scientia ad astrum ac ultra" - Navigate through science to the stars and beyond.
