Jeff Branson: Neil Armstrong

Quotes 

• Edward Baldwin : Look, I know you came out here to get away from all the questions, but it's still my backyard. So, spit it out. Did they really make you go through customs when you came back?

  Neil Armstrong : I got the receipt to prove it.

  Edward Baldwin : Jesus! That was a hell of a landing, Neil.

  Neil Armstrong : If you can call it that. Maintaining attitude control was no joke.

  Edward Baldwin : I bet.

  Neil Armstrong : Tell you the truth? I can't believe I didn't abort.

  Edward Baldwin : Well, you pulled it off. It was a good call.

  Neil Armstrong : Easy to say that looking back. Couple things go different, we drift a little bit further into those rocks we're a smoking hole and I got my name on the biggest disaster in NASA history.

  Edward Baldwin : Then why'd you go for it?

  Neil Armstrong : I don't know. You're in flight test and, every once in a while, you get to that point where part of your brain is saying, "Eject". But another part of your brain is saying, "Go for it". And you just have to make the call and hope you're not wrong.
