Of The Code: The Unwritten Rules of the Sky
Unveil the enduring code that harmonizes aviators through unity and dedication, upholding honor and vigilance under the watchful eye of the council.
The Sacred Code of Pilots
In the dimly lit cockpit, under the watchful eyes of the council, pilots adhere to a set of unwritten rules passed down through generations. These rules, forged by the legendary captains Campbell and Heath, are the bedrock of our profession. Violating these sacred tenets is not just a breach of protocol but an affront to the brotherhood, punishable by the council.
The First Three Rules of the Code
Rule 1: Never mention time until you are more than halfway to the destination.
Rule 2: Refrain from suppressing emotions, Show courage and articulate your thoughts
Rule 3: It is forbidden to engage in any romantic or physical relationships with the spouse or offspring of fellow pilots
