The magenta argument

The report also says (Para 1.17)
“The operator acknowledged that its Airbus crews were generally not well trained on manual approaches due to the routine practice of using automatic systems.”
“The operator prohibited flying manually with manual thrust in visual approaches during supervised flights, starting in the week after the event (22 July 2016).”
That pretty well says it all, not only about their practices but about how they deal with a problem. Sweep that lot under the carpet! Now that I am retired and have more time on my hands, if I do have to go to the “abroad” I will seriously consider going by sea.
