rat5, it was a Jetstream in northern Sweden, in 2003. It got more than a few dents as a result...
Like the idea of flying manually (kind if the reason we started to aviate, ain't it?) and Our company culture encourage the crews to pick a visual up when conditions permit.
And even in our manual it is actually stated that when flying a visual or circling and FD not needed they should be off... So we fly them lookin out the window which is quite nice
