Let the FMS handle it. Nothing can go wrong-go wrong-go wrong.
Other wiz kid pilots on this site have called me an old dinosaur. Maybe I am but when I was trained to fly we flew it to its limits and the overriding lesson thumped into me was that I WAS THE MASTER. The aeroplane did what it was told.
This attitude brought on a protective attitude so that in my long, 49 years, career, I had this rapport with those in whose cockpit I was privileged to occupy. Mechanical sympathy is the engineers term and I had plenty of that so I could stick my neck out and read how my steed was coping.
I must have been successful because I never had an unexpected problem. (They wouldn't have dared.)
Lucky? No. As soon as I started one I would know if it was unhappy and this feeling lead me to an enjoyable and easy career.
