Somewhere in Europe obviously. I think this ruffles a lot of feathers but Dick Ruttan is a genius with what he has accomplished in aviation and I agree with his comments. Not seeing what your FO is doing on the side stick kept me out of the air bus. That big yoke in front of you tells you when it is time to take over. It rarely happens but sometimes you need to know what the other guy is doing. In the Airbus it is difficult with the side stick from what I have been told. I chose never to fly one.
