ANSWER
landing because you can crash the plane and you must now how to do it.
ANSWER
Landing is more difficult because there are more variables that must be taken into consideration and controlled by the pilot(s).
A pilot needs to reduce altitude and airspeed properly, set a rate of descent and adjust it moment by moment, get lined up with the runway which may not be possible until final approach and keep lined up regardless of wind conditions. If a plane has flaps they need to be lowered at the proper times and airspeeds, and if the plane has raiseable wheels they should not be lowered until just before touchdown. At the appropriate time the pilot must place both feet on the pedals and use them to gently control the rudder to help control the plane's direction.
Everything must be executed with near perfection so that the plane touches down at the center of the near end of the runway, at the correct speed and rate of descent, aligned with the runway. When the plane touches down and the wheels come up to speed, the pilot steers the plane with the foot pedals. If the plane has thrust reversers or reversable propellers, they must be used to slow the plane until the speed is low enough to safely use the wheel brakes, which are usually activated by pushing both foot pedals at the same time.
While this is all happening, the pilot needs to be prepared to abort the landing (a decision that needs to be made before touchdown) or "touch and go" (taking off again as soon as the wheels touch down).
There are a lot of precision maneuvers that need to happen in a very short time, and it takes a lot of repeated practice.
Taking off in good flying conditions is a relatively simple procedure that can quickly be taught to a student pilot. If the controls are correctly set, the plane will almost (not quite) take off by itself when the proper speed is reached on the runway. Rotate the nose upward, immediately get your feet off the pedals and keep them off until landing. Raise the wheels if they are raiseable, start reducing the flaps settings if you have flaps, and you will continue to fly as long as you don't try to climb so fast that you stall. That's about it.

Do more planes crash on takeoff or landing?
Landing
Is burn fuel used more or less during takeoff and landing?
Burn fuel is generally used more during takeoff and landing compared to cruising. During takeoff, aircraft engines operate at full thrust to lift off, consuming significant fuel. Landing involves a different fuel consumption profile, as engines are usually throttled back, but the overall fuel usage during takeoff and landing phases is still higher due to the increased power needed for takeoff and the additional energy required for approach and descent.
Citation 2 aircraft takeoff and landing runway specifications?

Where can one buy an aircraft landing lights?
Aircraft landing lights are key to takeoff and landing, and should always be working and checked prior to takeoff. Replacement lights can be purchased from Amglo and XEVision.
What force is increased when the flaps are lowered during takeoff and during landing?
When the flaps are lowered during takeoff and landing, the lift force is increased. This is achieved by increasing the wing's surface area and altering its shape, allowing the aircraft to generate more lift at lower speeds. The enhanced lift helps the aircraft become airborne more easily during takeoff and provides better control and stability during landing.
A plane usually extends flaps from its wings during takeoff and landing What is a reasonable explanation?
The flaps help to increase lift, which is essential to the landing and takeoff phase[s].
What is the proper abbreviation for vertical Takeoff and landing?
VTOL
What does VTOL aircaft have the ability to do?
VTOL craft can takeoff and land vertically. hence Vertical Takeoff Or Landing
Does it really affect a jet when you record a takeoff or landing?
absolutely not.
When are weather conditions most critical to aviators?
during takeoff and landing
Are passengers required to keep the airplane window shades open during takeoff and landing"?
Yes, passengers are typically required to keep the airplane window shades open during takeoff and landing for safety reasons.
Why do airplane windows need to be open during takeoff and landing?
Airplane windows need to be open during takeoff and landing to allow passengers to see outside and help maintain orientation in case of an emergency evacuation.
