I cannot help it, but I see a lot of people in the sim, and sometimes, when things go haywire, they tend not to be able to handle basics. Many of my old friends flying senecas on a private licence would do a better job.
And I train Airline Pilots.
Your part A and your S.O.P.s are only guidelines. They do not teach you flying, or even the basics.
I prefer real pilots, even if they forget once to set 1013.2 exactly at Transition ALt
But maybe I am outdated.
My two pennies..
