Here we go.
I fly a real Boeing (B727) and i wouldnt trade it in for a Airbus or New Automated Boeing.
It's great to have a dodgy autopilot so you fly the departures/arrivals and the approuches by hand(Thats why i became a pilot).
and every Aircraft should have a flight engineer(and 52049er i prefer not to dream about them when i'm in bed).

PS
real Aircraft have corrosion and make lots of noise
