Face it , the only reason anyone likes the scarebus is because there's a meal tray that folds down in front of you, and the control column doesn't get in the way of your beer gut. Bar that it's effectively working it's way to doing pilots out of a job. If you scarebus fans want that,then fine (in fact you'd probably be happier at your PCs anyway). Personally I'm trained to do this job, and would rather do it, rather than have it subcontracted to bunch of clever geeks, who've worked out that it isn't necessary for pilots to have thrust levers etc etc, ad nauseam.
