Pilot's manual

Each departure is optional. Landing is mandatory 2. If you push the steering wheel forward, the houses get bigger. If you pull it back - they shrink. This rule applies until you pull the steering wheel completely back and leave it there - then the houses become very large. 3. Flying is not dangerous! Accidents are dangerous. 4. It is always preferable to be down and regret that you are not up, instead of being up and regretting that you are not down. 5. The only time you have too much fuel is when your plane catches fire. 6. The propeller is a large fan in front of the aircraft that serves to cool the pilot. When he stops, the pilot begins to sweat. 7. When in doubt about height, give up. No one has ever encountered the sky. 8. A "good" landing is one after which you can walk without medical help. A "great" landing is after which the plane can be reused. 9. Learn from the mistakes of others. You will not live long enough to make them all yourself. 10. You realize you landed without chariots when you have to give full speed to get to the ramp. 11. The probability of surviving is inversely proportional to the landing angle. The larger the angle, the lower the probability and vice versa. 12. Stay away from the clouds. Well-informed sources claim that some mountain peaks have a habit of hiding in the clouds. 13. Always try to equalize the number of takeoffs with the number of landings. 14. There are three small rules that ensure a smooth landing. Unfortunately, no one has been able to find them so far. 15. You start with a bag full of luck and an empty bag of experience. The trick is to fill the bag with experience before emptying the one with luck. 16. Helicopters cannot fly - they are so ugly that the ground repels them. 17. If the only thing you see at the window is the ground getting rounder and rounder, and the only thing you hear is the excitement rising in the passenger compartment, then something is wrong. 18. In the eternal battle between birds made of aluminum, flying at hundreds of kilometers per hour, and the earth, which moves at zero kilometers per hour, so far the earth has not collected a single loss. 19. Look around constantly. There is always something you have missed. 20. Remember, gravity is not just an idea. It is a law. And not subject to appeal.
