Here's what Airbus has to say....and, I agree:

1. The aircraft can be flown like any other aircraft;
2. Fly, Navigate, Communicate, and Manage;
3. Respect task sharing, and back each other up;
4. Know your FMA at all times;
5. Cross the accuracy of the Flight Management System with raw data;
6. One head up at all times;
7. When things don't go as expected, take over;
8. Use the proper level of automation for the task.
The aircraft can be flown like any other aircraft? Really?

Try trimming for 250 in a climb and get back to us on how it went.
