Falcon,
It could be my accent, but have you ever had a RA from a boat? Really, its not too hard a question.
Falcon good on you for seeing someone forget to trim.
You Numpty. No, I have seen the Boeing the to Airbus guys do a great job of flying the aircraft with and without the FDs. Its just another aeroplane mate, I know its easy to be scared of things you don't understand, but we do our best to teach this stuff, I promise. Power plus attitude still equals performance, even in the Bus. Who would have guessed.
