Uh...let’s see....what ever on earth happened to the air speed indicator? Oh! I guess senior captains don’t look at those anymore during flight.

They don’t look at air speed or much else when they become conditioned to rely on the “expert systems”.

I know I am an old fart but I’m not buying computers as a replacement for people with experience that think.

I also think education is much better than training. Training is a man-powered alternative to a computer. Training works when everything is going according to the training script.

Technicians are trained. Engineers are supposed to be educated but education without experience just isn’t enough.
