This piece
pays homage to the
tenacity of the human
spirit and mankind's
achievements of flight
and space exploration.
With main themes
presented in minor keys,
the asymmetric and odd
meters---especially the
5/4---intend to give
thrust and momentum to
the music. The many
changing meters of the
piece are intended to
give the listener a
similar feeling that a
pilot has while
attempting to control an
aircraft during a
turbulent and bumpy
flight.
