...instead of asking more and more automatic fool proof protection (well, that's what it's for - for fools) it might be necessary to work on basic flying skills and proper pilot selection.

If you look at the current discussion in the Middle East forum ("should it be allowed to hand fly an aircraft?") it's clear were the present development goes. And that's why these Airbusses are so pretty liked in the less developped countries - you can put any pilot in it.

So far, every Airbus crash had been "impossible". But still some "spatial disoriented" pilots were able to drive it into the ground...

when will they ever learn...
