[QUOTE="greybeard, post: 1334588, member: 18945"] T B< Even the "improvements" carry some significant risk. On another board, 2 of the members are commercial airline pilots and both say the biggest problem in air safety today is that pilots especially foreign company pilots, no longer know how to actually fly or land the newer Boeing and AirBus planes if the computer malfunctions or if there is unusually high or cross winds on a runway. So far, in the US/Canadian fleets, pilots still prefer to land the aircraft themselves, but the ac are capable of doing it themselves. Anything since 757 doesn't even have a flight engineer to take care of pressurization, heating, fuel and pneumatic systems--that's all taken care of completely by software. (I wold like to have a completely automatic lawn tractor tho--just drag it out, get it started and let it go mow the whole yard without running over momma's hibiscus or the aerobic system sprinkler heads) [/QUOTE]
