The new generation of twenty year olds are getting used to reliance on increasingly reliable automation. As this generation move through, expect to see less manual flying.
Hmm well if we were allowed to fly the thing once in a while.....but apparently only the experienced dudes with the dodgy eyes and slowing reflexes can do that....
I love my job, and the company I work for. However, the role of an SO/CFO or whatever...is a total crock of sh&t designed for one thing....to save the relevant company some dough.
Don't forget though, you must be 'P' at landings etc, even though you dont do them...ever...
