Yeah, but all take off and landing is done manually by a trained pilot, and all auto-pilot settings are set and monitored by a trained pilot. I don't mean they click an airport and it does the rest, I mean they set altitude, airspeed (adjusted for altitude change), heading, vertical speed limits for altitude change, etc. They actually need thousands of hours of experience to fly an airliner and even then they have a crew phone in to help them park. It's hardly surprising that a highly regimented fleet would be reliable. --- RIP_Supa posted... I've seen some stuff <cite>Kyuubi4269 posted [p:893990386] in How do you...
