[quote=B737NG]The sidestick is it what I did not like at the first time. It is the same today, just my personal thing. It has nothing to do with the liability of the Aircraft but the feedback you have in all conventional Aircraft. That suits old Guys like me...In 11 years and 5 month it is over, I retire then. Maybe Boeing was listening more to old guys like me when they created the fly by wire and used a Yoke instead of a Sidestick.

The comments I've heard tend to be in favor of the sidestick once guys get used to it. Unfortunately the decision makers are made up of the old farts. Guess which way they voted?

11 yrs 10 months to go. What's it feel like to be your age?
