Flight Maneuvers

Why is it necessary for airplanes to fly at such high altitudes?
Commercial airplane Jets (i.e Boeings, Airbus') fly at altitudes of 30,000-40,000 feet during the course of their flight. I never have understood why it was necessary to do so. Why can't they fly at 4,000 feet or so? Wouldn't it be easier for a pilot to maneuver a more safe landing in the case of an emergency if the airplane was not so high in the air?
The atmosphere is thinner at higher altitudes, so there is less wind resistance, meaning the flight takes less time. Also, more importantly for the airline, it uses less fuel to fly at higher altitudes. That's the main reason anyway.

Helicopter Maneuvers Manual (Spiral) $27.92 Providing a detailed look at helicopter maneuvers, the information in this guide helps to solidify concepts gained from flight training in a student pilot`s mind by incorporating the Practical Test Standards into every maneuver description. The graphical and textual explanations work in conjunction with an instructor`s lessons, allowing students to prepare before sessions and to review afterwards as well. Because helicopter pilots must rely on their memory or understanding of a particular maneuver, the Helicopter Maneuvers Manual provides readers with a crystal-clear picture of what level of performance is expected of them every step and includes insights into the common errors associated with each move. |

Flight 93 $5 Rated: NASynopsis: Not to be confused with the Paul Greengrass film of the same name and subject matter, this version of FLIGHT 93 is a low-budget affair. The story revolves around the events that took place on the ill-fated plane that crashed into the Pennsylvania landscape on September 11, 2001. FLIGHT 93 is based on the facts that have been gleaned from the day's events aboard the plane, so we witness the passengers heroically fighting back against the terrorists, as well as the initial takeover of the cockpit. Meanwhile, in the skies outside the plane, there are frantic military maneuvers that make this a tense, action-packed motion picture. |

Basic Flight Maneuvers
Do the astronauts only do research or repair work inside there spaceship or they also..?
or they also have to do some maneuvers to control the flight of there ship. I think that whole the space flight is controlled from the base station at NASA. The astronauts just keep sitting inside spaceship keeping there fingers crossed. Are there any sort of lever or switches inside their rockets which can direct their motion I mean as they do in the fiction movies??
please also add-up web links if possible.
regards
Actually, most of a spaceships's control is with the astronauts. Consider Apollo 8, where astronauts had to fly to the moon--they were very far away from the Earth and much of the mission was in their hands.
However, you're right -- mission control has a ton of power. They make the calculations, and guide the rocket to the desitnation. They also have the power to abort a mission.
So really, it's a balance of control.
