Most people think that flying a plane is dangerous, except pilots because they know how easy it is.
Arguing with a pilot is like wrestling with a pig in the mud, after a while you begin to think the pig likes it.

When all else fails, follow the "shiny" knob theory.

You only are supposed to use the shiny ones, because those are the ones everyone else has used a lot. 

The only caveat, beware any aircraft that has shiny emergency buttons, someone has had exciting times in that aircraft multiple times.

Yeah but that is such an old designed, imagine if they had actually made the new space shuttle like they were supposed to, it would look more like a A380 or B787.
