Student Pilot Flying Rules - red_baron - 14-11-2005
I saw somewhere this rules
Student Pilot Flying Rules
1- Takeoffs are optional.Landings are mandatory.2- If you push the stick forward,the houses get bigger. If you pull the stick back,they get smaller.
3- Flying isn't dangerous.Crashing is dangerous.
4- It is always better to be down here wishing you were up there,than up there wishing you were downhere.
5- The only time you have too much fuel is when you are on fire.
6- The propeller is just a big fan in front of the plane used to keep the pilot cool.When it stops,you canactually watch the pilot start
sweating.
7- When in doubt,hold on to your altitude.No one has ever collided with the sky.
8- A good landing is one which you can walk away.A great landing is one after which they can use theplane again.
9- Learn from the mistakes of others.You won't live long enough to make all of them yourself.
10- You know you have landed with the wheels up if it takes full power to taxi to the ramp.
11- The probability of survival is inversely proportional to the angle of arrival.
12- Stay out of the clouds.The silver lining everyone keeps talking about might be another airplane goingin the opposite direction.
13- Reliable sources also report that mountains have been known to hide out in the clouds.
14- There are three simple rules for making a smooth landing.Unfortunately no one knows what they are.
15- You start with a bag full of luck and an empty bag of experience.The trick is to fill the bag ofexperience before you empty the bag of
luck.
16- In the ongoing battle between objects made of aliminum going hundreds of miles per hour and theground going zero miles per
hour,the ground has yet to lose.
17- Good judgement comes from experience.Unfortunately,experience usually comes from badjudgement.
18- It is always a good idea to keep the pointy end going forward as much as possible.
19- Remember,gravity is not just a good idea,it is the law.And it is not subject to repeal.
20- Always try to keep the number of landings you make equal to the number of takeoffs you've made.
21- The three useless things to a pilot ? a- altitude above you b- runway behind you c- 1/10 of a second ago.Enjoy

Verrry good points!
Nice one, Red_Baron (and sorry about the 2:0 last Saturday..

The only one that is technically incorrect is #2. It should read:
- If you push the stick forward,the houses get bigger. If you pull the stick back,they get smaller if you pull the stick too far back, the house
will get bigger again.
Anybody can name the two reasons?
