I would be interested to hear what it is like to fly the Airbus' without the 'traditional' sensory feedback from 'the yoke'.

How different is it going through computers as opposed to conventional cable or hydraulic/q feel operated controls with regard to control input etc and lack of 'feel'.

Is it more difficult/easier to be using predominantly the 'optic' senses as a ameans of garnering info as to what the aircraft is doing?
