So, has the advancement of technology really made significant inroads into the monitoring of the basics i.e. speed? In my day there was a Flight Engineer and that he was the King-Pin in the monitoring of airspeed, attitude, and height; especially during the final approach phase to touchdown... even more-so during a visual approach! What was the EGPWS telling the crew to do? Was it another case of "Shut-up Gringo"?
