HA!

I think some people are giving the A320 normal law too much credit. Yes it dos make life easier, but I've made a mess of things before. On one particular occasion, I was simply rusty and was on the edge of needing to go around. Thankfully the only thing I damaged was my ego. The next approach was raw data and I felt my skill and confidence returning.

Maybe I'm not quite as average as I think I am, but on every type I've flown, the more flying I do, the better I am at it. Some of us need to keep working at it to maintain proficiency.

Plus, it's fun
