"Once over the ocean, there will be little opportunity to land the plane if he runs out of fuel."It's only the "land" part that is problematic.

I don't think I have ever heard the expression "balls to the wall". I know the old one of "balls out" referred to the governors on old steam engines which moved further out the faster the engine turned.

What literally does the phrase "balls to the wall" mean
and how did this become a useful phrase to describe some action.
Similarly, the phrase "dead nuts on" to describe rocket science accuracy?
Who thinks up this stuff?
