So there's another one ? What's your beef ? Fired ?
I can't comment on Cx SOs and their training program. I'm sure they do just fine whilst upgrading and being check to line.
For the rest of us , most of us fly manual sims, hell I've done visual approaches and auto thrust off many many times, what are you trying to prove ? That you can fly ? In an emergency you are the type of people I certainly don't want flying the jet .
