Flying is flying. Cessna or Space shuttle. They fly the same.
Those two craft fly very differently.
Wrong again as usual.
Try a little more research.
They were doing REAL landings, in real machines.
No, they were not. No practice runs were conducted. Everything was a
simulation of one kind or another. They could not go to the moon just
to practice going to the moon.
If I'm not mistaken, Armstrong even had to punch out of one when he
lost control.
You can't punch out of a real landing.
