Everyone misses the fact that Airbus and Boeing are making airplanes that they need to sell to third world countries with low time, inexperienced pilots.
This fact has now come up to bite Boeing in the ass. Airbus had their bite when a flight augered into the South Atlantic on the way to Paris years ago.
NOTHING can replace basic flying skills, learned,over time, on how †o manually fly an airplane without all of the autoflight features that exist on today’s airplanes.

Fly first world or risk your butt!

...

I’ve been thinking that since the first crash. If Boeing wants to compete with Airbus in the third world they’ll have to make their aircraft foolproof.

It was Air France that took a plunge into the Atlantic. It really 3rd World.
