Quite correct. Too many of the new troops are flying these aircraft by numbers. Their SOP's may be top notch but their ability to handle the aircraft is in some cases very lacking - its not their fault per se, that is how the airlines train them, that is what the national authorities seem to be happy with in the 21st century.

Sensationalist reporting by rags such as the Daily Mail does not help the issue but IT IS an issue nonetheless.
