So being a pilot means turning on the AP and flying the heading bug on a canned flight plan? Is that it? Is that what everyone is training for?

Talk about a myopic point of view where none of the gear breaks, where pilots just follow a little white aircraft to show them where they are.

This industry is beyond sad, and currently at a real low point. I would say that while the gear is getting better, pilots are devolving.
