7. Pilots get little hand flying time in this event zone.
care to elaborate ?
.
Pilots tend to hand fly take off and landings, little in climb/decent and even less in cruise.
Just follow the monie.
To have all crews well trained to cope with events that these crew found on the sad flight was not worth it, history shows this.
I would guess on another day/night with the same operating crew, the result may/could of been better.
