A long time ago, right after the stick, we invented the yoke. It was a big wheel like thing with no top that made it obvious what everybody was doing in the cockpit controlling the airplane. It made it simple to know what the guy on the other side of the cockpit was doing. It worked well for decades. It didn't matter much where the armrest was or if a different size person took over the seat. It was simple and self explanatory. Then a company came up with this idea they could save weight by putting this little side stick in the cockpit to do what the simple yoke system was doing. Now it isn't simple any more. Now you don't know what the other guy is doing so it is hard to respond when the airplane does something but you don't know why. Then you have laws of how all this works that some people don't understand. Now you have pilots that find themselves confused because they can't see the yoke moving any more like in the past. This is progress?
