I got a free hour in the A320 sim and the tech put me through the same windshear program that put one down in Dallas years ago... I rode it out timing the throttle inputs to what I anticipated was coming with the shear (increasing vs decreasing performance) and I pressed on and got is down in the touchdown zone still without knowing it was coming ahead of time. Then I pulled off a 50 knot x-wind landing in Bogota and also was able to do the dead stick into the Hudson. Guess either a regional pilot can do it to or they really did build the A320 so easy an idiot could fly it. I personally am going with option number two!!! But at least I am a highly functional idiot :) I really am just coming up with crap to say so I can get my Avatar in another thread!
 
I'm embarrassed for you. Please crawl into the ample bagginess of a ramper's saggy pants and fossilize. That way, future species will be able to study the true reason for human extinction...all in one recovery. My heart goes out to you guys, truly. It was like lightning down my spine when I heard about Comair. But for God's sake...fade with dignity.

Besides---pilots push one button a single time per segment...and that's it. Computers fly planes. Everyone knows that.
 
Yet 813ca posted the same message over on the majors board and got slammed. embarassing to say the least.
