Nick 1 and Robere35: I'm with FE Hoppy on this one. After four years on the A320 I wouldn't start pulling CBs in flight unless following the Airbus reset table. Experimenting with a few resets isn't "airmanship", it's asking for trouble. On a B737 perhaps, but the systems on an Airbus talk to each other, so by rebooting one computer you may interrupt signals to several others. A lot of clever people have put the manuals together (very badly, I'll grant you!) so that, if a system can be recovered you can attempt a reset, if not you leave it alone and work with the remaining channels/backups.

I would link your attitude to that of the type who considers the use of speedbrakes a personal failure.
