  'Nothing exists; all is a dream. God—man—the world—the sun, the moon, the wilderness of stars—a dream, all a dream; they have no existence. Nothing exists save empty space—and you!'
  
  Published posthumously, The Mysterious Stranger is Mark Twain's final, unfinished novella, showcasing the writer at his most chilling.
  
  Set in a quiet Austrian town during the medieval period, Twain's provocative tale follows three children whose lives are thrown into chaos by the arrival of a charming yet enigmatic youth named Satan. Through the use of heavenly powers, Satan executes miracles with ease, magically transporting his peers back in time and forcing them to witness witch trials, hangings and influxes of mass hysteria. He unveils unsettling truths, highlighting the hypocrisies of religion, morality and human nature. By turns whimsical and profoundly existential, Twain crafts a fable that cleverly questions the very fabric of the human experience: free will, the nature of evil and the illusion of reality. The result is a bold, haunting and eerily modern adventure that lingers long after the last word.
  Mark Twain (1835 – 1910), the pen name of Samuel Langhorne Clemens, was an American writer and essayist. Famed for his wit and satire, he quickly became a sought-after writer and speaker, and was labelled the 'greatest humorist the United States has produced' by the New York Times. Today, he is considered as the father of modern American literature.

  In past times, all the adventures experienced by sailors on each ocean crossing were recorded by the captain in his navigation logbook, the captain's logbook, a manuscript carefully written by the highest rank of the boat, written with a pen and guard in his main cabin. In this manuscript, the captain had to write down everything that happened during his trip, a complete adventure manual, for those who would read it in the future. 
  	This book will be our captain's blog. A manuscript written by airline pilots, who have shared their stories with us, and want to offer their stories to the world. Each of the stories detailed in this work are real, modifying some data and information to protect the privacy of those who have told them. 
  	Accompanied by these flight stories, we will learn the real stories of professional success of some of our colleagues, who have decided to share their own personal stories to show that every dream is possible, even when it is impossible. 
  	Cockpit Stories is the first book of the Aeronautical Library that departs from technical teachings and seeks to entertain its readers with fabulous stories lived in the cockpit, where it is presumed that what happens in the cabin, remains in the cabin. 
  	We live in an aeronautical environment where every day more tools are demanded and greater obstacles appear to achieve the long-awaited dream of flying. Today we will pause to enjoy aviation again, through the eyes of those who have seen charming landscapes, unique storms, complex approaches and everything from the front row, the cockpit.

  Human Factors in Aviation

  More than a century has passed since humans conquered the sky. Like any conquest, it required assuming countless risks to achieve it. Once achieved, the process of consolidation begins, along with stabilization. Time and hard work are what allow this stabilization to be secure. 
  	 
  	Just like in every human conquest, this process has not escaped the chronological logic of growth. Of course, aviation is not exempt from this developmental mechanism of conquests. Unfortunately, for this industry, the process of growth comes with the loss of lives. 
  	 
  	After more than a century of conquest, it could be said that the aviation industry is in the stabilization phase, achieving established, reliable, and sustainable safety standards. If we have reached this stage, it is the result of work, research, study, and the construction of what we now know as a safety culture. 
  	 
  	The conquest of the sky and safe aviation require constant actions to maintain and increase the levels of safety that have been achieved. That is why this work highlights the most significant aspects of the development of concepts and techniques that have served, served, and will continue to serve flight crews in maintaining and improving the mentioned standards.
