"You'v not flow Airbus, Dude, you're not entitled to a opinion."
Make of it what you will, but that's not what was being said. You're perfectly entitled to your opinion, but actual experience of what is being discussed will tend to add weight to it.
747diesel has a point, no-one's disputing that. There are caveats to his argument though. For example, Airbus-style FBW isn't really appropriate for basic flight training, but it was never intended to be used for that. To make up for that in conversion training, a lot more time gets spent in the simulator to get a feel for what the thing will do. Another point is that you are not always at the mercy of the computer. In Direct Law the pilot is not prevented from doing anything, and it is as simple to engage DL as it is to disengage automation on more conventional airliners.
