With the advent of modern automation, I think the ART of flying (seat of the pants if you will) is being lost and sometimes flying is an ART and a bit of luck.
In my view with respect to the pilots, over reliance on automation rears it's ugly head as the real cause of so many accidents these days on highly automated cockpits.
