Rat 5 " no-0ne has suggested better training" : I think, many have. I did but my post was deleted. Proper airline funded training with the result of proper airline pilot training selection will help a lot. The actual ab-initio training should include lots of handling and stick & rudder emphasis as the levels of automation and benefits are slowly introduced. Airline pilot managers should stop being brow-beaten by the bean counters and encourage handflying. We all know the level of automation we are in. Some enjoy split mode, full auto or pure manual. Doesn't matter a stuff but because of system anomoly or failure , pilots might become unsure of what George is doing. Full encouragement to knock out the autopilot, auto thrust & FLY the aircraft and then quizing the event is always the safe option.
