From the Introduction: A theme that runs through this book is that if emergency procedures are truly learned, and then practiced, they cease to be emergencies and simply become additional procedures. This is the goal of most of the better training facilities that teach pilots of airliners and corporate jets. When the light plane pilot is trained to the same standard, the risks associated with aviation shrink tremendously.
Low build quality, overpriced, boosters do not "connect"
The shuttle just kinda hangs from it FRAGILE front wheel onto the boosters,which are one piece unlike the real thing. Was hoping each booster individually snapped together and you could play out the full stages, but no.
Also the bay doors are loooooose and rattle around and open all the time, but then if the satellites swivel you cannot shut the bay doors. I expected them to have some way to stay closed when playing with this thing but no.
