Default Co-pilot gets sick, stewardess helps land airplane

No matter what the aircraft is there are basics.


It takes a lot more than basics to fly a 747. In a Cessna 152, there isn't
much else beyond the basics, but in a large commercial airliner, almost
everything is beyond the basics.

A pilot's license does not confer instant knowledge of all systems and all
details of all aircraft. A good pilot knows this.

You demonstrate that you have terms which do not equate to what we
actually do. Sure your word salad looks impressive but that's all it
is just word salad.


Not to a qualified pilot of the aircraft in question. In fact, almost
everything I named is on one or two displays in a large jet, and of course a
pilot of such is expected to know what they are and where they are.
