"You're clear for takeoff!" - are the words of the command that the ground uses to see off every pilot. It is not by chance that the author put them in the title of his book dedicated to the labor of pilots. How a man, overcoming difficulties, gains wings, how he learns the joy of flight, sometimes defeating serious failures, how he learns not only to control the machine, but also his own will, tells this book. The author is a pilot. Addressing his young friends - future aviators, he seeks to pass them along with knowledge and his love for the sky, to which he gave most of his conscious life. This book will not make the reader a pilot, but it will help him to understand and, most importantly, to love a difficult and delicate profession - the profession of a pilot, the winner of time and space. This year June 20 marks the 100th anniversary of the birth of Anatoly Markovich Markusha, a front-line soldier, participant of the Great Patriotic War, test pilot, writer, a man who by his example and his books infected with love for aviation, called many generations of boys and girls of our, and not only our, country to this wonderful field of human activity. His books were published in 19 languages, and their total circulation exceeded 15 million. We, the creative team of Anatoly Markovich's students and the Publishing House of the Academy named after N.E. Zhukovsky, are proud that we can celebrate the 100th anniversary of the writer with the fifth edition of his famous book "To You-Altitude!".
