"The ships hung in the sky in much the same way that bricks don't."
Douglas Adams, The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy
The thing about flying bricks is that there are no “go arounds”; there is no engine on the returning space shuttle so if you fluff the approach, then you fluff the landing, or worse. So practise makes perfect (with a bit of a wobble around 10000’) and anyway it is said that any landing that you walk away from is a good one!
