Been on the bus for more than 3 years. Great piece of kit and the side-stick is not even an issue.....that is until you go base training with brand new pilots-if they dont flair the trainer has no time to react or even to help the landing on its way. As for the autothrust- you get used to levers not moving but there is no benefit from this other than a cost saving (less moving parts). correct me if I'm wrong on that one
Somebody mentioned that the 737 taxies sideways- Have seen this so many times now while taxying behind them-Is it an illusion or what?
