I love the Airbus, best office by far. The Ergonomics are top notch, however...............as a pilot, I want to pitch the nose down in a Stall, not have to rely on the airplane to do it automatically. Its not a good feeling to get the ADs where Airbus says, "Hey, in case this thing decides to nosedive for no good reason, no problem, just turn of 2 of the 3 major computers", are you kidding me?

I have also been privy to a lot of ASAP reports (not sure if Europe participates) where the Airbus has done some very strange, very scary things for no good reason. Thats all I am saying. I would rather rely on my training and skill to save the day, not some computer that has a tendency to try and kill me
