We've already passed that point, where ,poorly trained pilots are unable to throw away the automatics and manually fly while sorting out malfunctions in a an emergency. Or a trained in mindset that manual flight is an emergency.
Or blind faith in the automatics causing the accident.
I.e. DXB EK B777. Press TOGA, no monitoring that it works, as no hands on A/T during a critical phase of flight. A B777 doesn't Go Around well at idle power! Simple piloting skills lacking, or that disappearing “skill” Airmanship.
