Why do you need to press so many buttons to start a plane? Can’t there be just one button to start everything in sequence automatically?
In: Technology
If your car malfunctions/breaks down while driving, you can take it to a mechanic, or get a tow. If it’s a plane that’s flying, you have to fix it before you die.
When flipping all those switches to start the plane, you’re not just turning things on; you’re making sure they work. If you find a problem, you can isolate its location; then either attempt to fix it, or abort the flight: thus preventing said problem from crashing your plane.
