Well, the hardest thing is landing, followed by taking off. Although I guess certain in-flight emergencies would really be the hardest - mainly during landing or take off. The hardest thing they had to do was fly them straight and low enough to hit the buildings.
- WalterBright 13y agoMost airplanes will take off pretty much by themselves if you just point them down the runway and open the throttles.
- frenchman_in_ny 13y agoSure, if you don't have a crosswind. They'll take off, just they won't necessarily stay in the air.
- WalterBright 13y agoAirplanes are designed to be stable if you let go of the controls.
- CrankyPants 13y agoRelative to the air it's flying through, yes. Relative to the ground? Not so much. And that's what matters most when transitioning from or to being a ground vehicle (takeoff/landing).
