A horrendous, confusing document that seems to have been written in the form of an unsolvable riddle. Last time I tried to read it I did actually give up and read some (generally quite lame) aviation riddles instead to relax.<\/p>\n<h4>Here&#8217;s my favourite.<\/h4>\n<p><em>You are sitting on an aeroplane.
