dose anyone know any more aviation rules like these?

-Thou shall maintain thy airspeed lest the earth shall arise to smite thee

-Thou shall ensure enough fule for the same reason

-Forgetteth not to lower thy gear when the good earth approacheth near!

I think that's the idea. They're rules written in the form of a "canon" or ecclesiatical law. Apparently there are more like it. I tried a quick search for < aviation canon > with no luck. Bearing in mind that Canon is a brand name for cameras & suchlike & "cannon" is sometimes mispelled "canon" you can see the problem. ???
