An audit of the published manual as three new users (practise flying, ground control with a real aircraft, Towers) found blockers in the first pages of each path. This fixes the ones that are wording or missing pages. All edits are prose, so the packed results and screenshots still attach (a Pages-style build shows no stale or missing pictures).

Front door

• The landing page names all three uses, links each path, and offers the download before the source build. The comment on cargo run --release now says it starts the launcher.

Flying

• Your first hover says what the keyboard throttle does in a hover (0 holds, 1 to 5 climb, QRTL brings it down).
• The sim and VTOL setup text gives the launcher buttons, and says where the Seeker 3 is.
• Learning with self-levelling says that ANGLE needs Direct control (J).
• The launcher setup no longer asks for "no controls.cfg yet".

Ground control

• New page: Connecting to a real aircraft (--connect, --origin, MAVProxy for serial radios, plan in the sim and fly at the field).
• The ground control path starts the station directly. Picking what to launch says it is not needed for that, and warns about ray tracing.
• Mission files says where mission.wpl is. The command-line page gains --connect, --origin, --aircraft seeker3 and SIM001_MISSION_FILE.
• The station setup text is shorter, and the VTOL pages no longer say "Wait until ARM" twice.

Towers

• The centre tower gives one and a half points, as the rules and the code say (the intro said two).
• The [[The battlefield|battlefield]] link is fixed.
• The path starts a practice game directly, mentions the load time, and marks the source-only step.
• Controls lists the keys of the commander app.

Not fixed here (generator)

• The "Shown for sim … isn't run on desktop" banner on the Towers pages (Docs: a section that doesn't run on the default platform shows no results in the default manual expectation#70).
• "The user story: As a …" at the end of each tutorial, and result lines that read as test assertions.

Checks

• expectation check: 0 errors. 8 more launch-in-step warnings, from the launcher and command text added to two setup phrases (the station and Towers phrases already have the same).
• cargo test --bin sim001 the_suite_checks_clean passes. No Rust changed.
