I never suggested it was black or white and I'm sure it is a nice piece of kit.. I'm just a bit concerned that these days we are becoming more and more reliant on automated flight and old-fashioned piloting skills are going out the window...

Furthermore, when you put a low-houred pilot, no doubt very talented and probably knows the nuts and bolts of the kit alot better then most of us, he/she hasn't been given a chance to develop these old fashioned piloting-skills and will find it troublesome when/if the autothrust system isn't coping..

Best regards
