    What interests me is that Donn Eisele had been a pilot for virtually his entire career. Donn Eisele's job on the Apollo 7 mission was piloting the spacecraft. In my opinion, I have always found it to be interesting and scary as a pilot, because it seems pretty cool to be manning vehicles that fly in the air, but you can also crash and blow up if things go wrong.

What piques my interest even more is that Donn Eisele wasn't just any pilot.…
