Exactly Stilton, and that is why Airbus has such a terrible accident rate compared to Boeing.
Oh, wait.....
They don't do they......
But that would mean you are talking utter tripe....?
Aviation has got safer in recent years solely due to good engineering. The pilot in both Boeing and Airbus is largely irrelevant to safety and in fact flight.
Recent crashes prove that many pilots are now so poor that when something goes wrong (or even when nothing goes wrong I the case of the SF 777!) the pilots can't cope.
