For mudskipper

Mudskipper ... what altitude does your ops manual instruct you to plug the auto pilot in!!!
Not taking anything away from you and your 330 tons of aluminium...I didn't pole that much much around the sky, but 60 tons on an 18 meter runway in the same conditions ... yes!
The only time you're allowed to fly those things is in the Sim.
So I still say you are now computer programmers who get to take off and land... It's not your fault! You have to obey the rules.
I ignored the company edicts to plug the auto pilot in at what ever alt. they reckoned and flew the aircraft to flight levels, because I liked flying.
The proof of the pudding is the number of blokes who are buying light aircraft and going FLYING
