Basic flying skills are becoming a problem with the airlines now too. Too many airlines promote automation as the only way to operate since flying skills are being lost with the new aircraft. Airbus made an issue of the loss of flying skills of the new pilots. The Sully's in aviation are going away fast and are being replaced by systems operators. Unfortunately the airlines find this more cost effective so will continue to let it happen.
