Answer and Explanation:

The author points out that some pilots may feel tempted and motivated to perform dangerous maneuvers while flying an airplane. The adrenaline of that moment is very exciting and can cause pilots to take risks even if they are later punished. The problem with these maneuvers is the danger they present and the apprehension they can present in cities due to the fear that citizens may feel when they see risky and completely unpredictable maneuvers.

This can be seen in the following lines:

"While prohibited, flying under the bridge wasn’t as dangerous as some of the other activities they engaged in. Stories of complaints lodged by northern New York residents appeared under the headline: “Dangerous Flying of Airmen From Canada Draws U.S. Ire.”"

" The article acknowledged the temptation it was to trainee pilots to mimic the fighter pilots in combat as they “darted and dodged and strafed.”"

What does Clifford say was the main reason for NATO and the Truman Doctrine?
oee [108]

Answer:

"We weren't concerned about markets; we were concerned about preventing Soviet  control of larger areas of the world than they already controlled. When the Second  World War ended, France was decimated. England was almost brought to its knees,  you'll remember, and if Hitler had moved at one time, he could have probably brought  them to their knees. The Soviet Union had gone through the most traumatic experience  of its career. I read that in the Second World War it's estimated that the Soviet Union lost  between twenty-five and thirty million men. So I think they were just determined that it  was never going to happen to them again. But an enormous vacuum had been left in  the free world by the end of World War II, and the Soviet Union was determined to move  into that vacuum. Now, that was the basis of the Marshall plan when we were thinking  about reviving Europe. At the time the Soviets were pressing and searching and trying to  find every soft spot where they could insert themselves. That was the reason for the  North Atlantic Treaty Organization; it was the reason for the Truman Doctrine."
