“I would like to fly again. And quickly! "

The pilot Wally Fank 60 years old dreamed of space - and finally visited there. This is what she said after returning to Earth

I cannot convey it in words. I had an excellent instructor, he told everything that we have to do. We went upstairs and I saw the darkness. I thought I would see the Earth, but we were quite high. I felt great! I lay and flew into space. ( He turns to Jeff Bezos. ) I want to thank you, dear, because you gave me this opportunity. I waited a long time and finally got into space. I went through many trainings for astronauts around the world - in Russia , the USA - and always ahead of men. I really liked the flight! The four of us had a great time. I enjoyed every minute. I would only like this to last longer. I would like to fly again. And quickly!
