I guess we will have to agree to disagree. "In my opinion" anyone that has flown high performance aircraft or have also flown captain on any of numerous commercial airliners do find that 9 seconds is a huge amount of time. Supermen, laser-like mind, whipping our a weird, but effective, solution, James Bond.... no not really, just a professional doing what they were trained and paid to do.
