It's just another aircraft. A tool to do a job. Boeing use FBW now too, they were just slower to catch on.
Hey, I don't like Boeing FBW either. Like I've said many times on here: I'm glad I'm out of this racket.

Why can't you young computer controled airline pilots admit that the manufacturers are trying to design you out of the aircraft completely with all this new "technology" that you speak so highly of? Don't think it can't be done. And...yes...people will eventually get used to the idea that noone is up there !! Will there still be accidents? Yes. But at least they will no longer be blamed on pilot error !! Then perhaps the cycle will start all over again with cable operated aircraft with real pilots and no computers.
