Remote control - Flight Automation
Hello,
First of all I’m learning, and keen to learn even more about the industry in walking into, hence this topic.
Today I bought Flight International to read during my train Journey, and the editorial article caught my attention, “Remote Control”, I’ll just highlight an interesting quote from the article hoping that some of you professionals could give me your views/opinions.
– Is this still the philosophy regarding training in any aircraft type nowadays?
Also the article states:
Do you agree with the above statement and question?
Regards

“Boeing claimed that the new airline pilot would be trained on a “need to know” basis, meaning that it was only necessary to know what the automated systems did, not how they did it.”
Also the article states:
Are modern airliner cockpits automated to the point where pilots are no longer able to intervene effectively?
Modern aircraft are safer – but crews need more training, note less.

A340-600 fuel computer design fiasco
Just one example of the perils inherent in not understanding the automation's underlying technology. A double engine flame-out is very attention-getting.
The same basic technology ("duelling redundancy") is being used to automate the fuel feed and balance in the A380. That's food for thought.

Until the following phrases become obsolete..............
"What's that noise/smell/movement?"
"What's it doing now?"
"How do you stop it?"
........we're all going to have jobs for quite a while.
