Thanks for the good post. In my opinion a pilot should be capable of hand flying from take-off to final cruise level and the reverse to a landing. To be capable you need to practice from time to time.

All the best in your retirement, it is normal to find out that there is never enough time to do all the things that you may have planned.

Well done
