What of the pilot engineering group? Also note that there is a distinct difference of opinion within the piloting group itself.

EDIT : And there was never a case in the A320 project, or the experiments that preceded it of an engineer working on his or her own - the teams were large, specialised and picked from the best the European aviation industry had to offer. The information I have suggests that BZ's engineering title was more of an honorific, in the same manner as Bill Gates' was after he stepped down as Microsoft CEO.
