There are co pilots in aircraft at the moment, that shouldn't even be there, leave alone touch the controls.

How are you going to get them weaned off the automatics if they are unable to practise hand flying??? Hang on, I am aware there are a few Captains around also that are almost entirely dependent on automatics. What's wrong with that you ask??? Well what if the automatics fail?? God help us I say.
