Yes. That could help or hurt, depending on the personality of the
individual.


You would have no chance asshole.


When thinking
through that scenario, I always pictured having three or four people
in the cockpit - each with a limited job that they'd be walked
through by an expert on the radio... maybe each with a cell phone
connecting them to individual team members on the ground. Then it's
just up to those experts on the ground to talk each of them through
about 1/4 of the process of getting the plane on the ground in one
piece (as opposed to making a flawless landing on the numbers).

That seems unnecessarily complicated. Especially with automation, as
long as the person in the left seat can push a button, turn a dial,
and move a lever, he can land the plane--provided also that he can
follow simple instructions on the radio.


Well, that would rule you out, fjukktard.
