English term or phrase: "took flight wearing skies"
In een interview met een bekende stuntpiloot (eerste vliegervaring):
"The first time I took flight wearing skies. I instantly felt confident and I knew from that moment on that I belonged to the sky."

Ik zoek het misschien te ver, maar ik zie niet wat het kan betekenen. Alvast bedankt!
