Trend
In each exchange re: AB & B, I've noticed a lean. It is generally subtle, though not always, and involves, I think a slightly different "approach" to flying. Bus adherents seem to be planted in a circle that tends toward automated, equipment dependent aviating. Boeing pilots, Stick and Rudder. The tipoff in the Bus argument is that peeping at the panel on very short final is preferable to peeking at the wingtip, or Horizon. One is left with the impression that Bus pilots think the trend is better when it favors CATIII autoland, Boeing pilots, see and react. There is no doubt in my mind that Piloting each type requires a different style.
