We Triassic Luddites are not knocking modern technology. What is worrying is the dependence on that technology. It appears that SOPs are being written not by the people who are going to fly to them but by accountants and lawyers. The is leading to a deterioration in the skill level of the profession as a whole.

It would take very little for there to be so much equipment available that a offshore aircraft could virtually do the whole thing by itself. When that happens you can pay the crew the same as call centres; because that is all they will have to do.
