“……寿命会大幅增加。”但这里说的并不意味着你能掌控所有风险。有时候,就是会有倒霉事发生,就算你做足了准备也无能为力(Gann 的《命运是位猎手》(Fate is the Hunter)在这方面是本极佳的读物)。不过,通过合理的规划,你可以极大地把天平倾斜向对自己有利的一边。

对于这里某些对领航、导航历史、人因工程以及精确经纬度导航发展感兴趣的朋友,下面两本书堪称瑰宝:Dava Sobel 的《经度》(Longitude),以及 Ernest Gann 的《命运是位猎手》。
For some of the folks here that are interested in nav, its history, human factors and the development of accurate lat long navigation, the following two books are gems: Longitude by Dava Sobel And Fate is the Hunter by Ernest Gann.
> 早期飞行员真是胆识过人。太赞同了!说到这里,我必须推荐 Ernest K. Gann 的《命运是位猎手》。它真实而令人胆寒地记录了他在早期民航时期的亲身经历(Gann 的讲述始于 30 年代)。维基百科词条,https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fate_Is_the_Hunter
> Early aviators had some serious guts. Here, here! On this note, I must recommend Fate is the Hunter by Ernest K. Gann.
