Yes, you have a computer between the Stick and the flight-controls, but you CAN turn that off….so don’t give me your Anti-Airbus crap again…you’ll find system admins on both types….
Dude, take a chill pill. I was joking

yeah, but on an airbus, the Pilot is merely a system administrator. On a Boeing, he is a PILOT 😀 :p
ps, ever heard of a break? hmmm :rolleyes:

I think if it were an Airbus the relevant ECAM action would be CTRL+ALT+DEL!!!

Wysiwyg…. Re 777 Efis crash, Is it at this point where you have to take yourself and your passengers and all cargo off the plane turn everything off and stand outside for a couple of minutes. Then you open all the doors, everybody gets back onboard turn the systems back on and find out you have lost all your unsaved routes and have to recode them all back in.

The FMS screens could be LCD.

They’d save a lot of space with LCD’s mind ya. Not as high res as CRT’s though, but more reliable long term.
