Yes, this is precisely the point, to operate commercial transport jets in todays environment, you need to be a well trained, safe, commercially aware pilot.
Managing an emergency will keep you alive.
Managing the operation of your flight efficiently, will keep you employed.
CAPTJNS, I cannot agree with that and there is ample indication on other threads to support the theory that the crew were presented with information from their instruments and warning systems which was contradictory and confusing. MAYBE, another pilot would have done the less obvious thing and walked away, sadly we will never know.
