Depends, I would say qualities such as keeping a calm head in an emergency, prioritizing and keeping things simple are necessary for any good pilot.
How it looks now I'm not sure they all had those...

I don't think that can be established as a fact. Faulty is not the right word anyway imo. There were certainly probes ready to go on that should be at least a bit better in icing conditions, but it...

That is probably true on a basic pshychological level...but shouldn't a pilot have a bit more of a grasp on the physics of flying? Why would lowering the nose in this case cause a stall warning? And...

It's pretty amazing then that dispite them being "unsafe" they have similar safety records to Boeing? Which are also pretty much computer controlled these days anyway. The A330 came along in '93 and...

I'm confused, I thought you were the expert there claiming that it would have been easy to find the plane by "radio" waves? Which basic maths would one apply to find from which location a plane sent...

The debris field does not appear to support any obvious in-flight breakup, and evidently the A330 is not inherently unsafe or more would have dropped out of the sky by now with several hundred of...
