Thankyou.

You're not the one in the firing-line, but I would then like to ask generally, how is the handing back of an aircraft to manual flight in what may inevitably be a 'less than trained for' state - condoned as acceptable - in the larger scheme of things.

I have obviously lost the plot in the last 30 years making these seemingly simple (and silly?) deductions of 'a training and skills maintenance system fit for likely purpose, '... or the industry has lost the plot - in one crucial area - if not more?

An accident that may not be thought to be in this category - AA587 wake turbulence handling - trained for specifically - but (allegedly) improperly.
