I watched the real time adjustments during the approach, and have serious doubts that someone alone in the cockpit with over the radio instuctions could in fact do what the crew did, even if that person had sim experience. Any intelligent person could do it with or without sim experience. And remember, these aircraft can be flown by one person in a pinch. In the world of psychology studies regarding open- loop instruction systems have shown them to be very error prone. It would take someone very good at giving blinded verbal instructions to pull it off. With someone good at following them, and someone good at giving them, things would work out. Read what happened in something I just posted about an F18 pilot being given instructions on bringing his bird home in San Diego -- hardly inexperienced, and yet the result was a deadly crash. He was in training. |

Do you not understand that increasing the volume of alarms or tweaking operating modes of autoflight systems after an accident caused wouldn't be unusual? Boeing doesn't wait for accidents before installing alarms. |

![]() No mater how many times you explain it, you still are not getting the point. My original 'point' was that I could not understand how a pilot could not know the AP was disconnected based on what is fitted to the majority of current aircraft. Now I know that this particular Russian Airbus did NOT have an alarm but that does NOT give you the right to argue other aircraft also have NO system of alarm just because ***I*** said it. I dont have to be a commercial pilot to be aware of this the same as I don't have to be Neil Armstrong and step onto the surface of the moon to 'know' it's not made out of cheese. Awareness and knowledge (to a some degree) can be acquired solely from the written word, videos and from real pilots of the particular aircraft you are studying otherwise why have flight manuals, why have detailed manuals about a particular aircraft when according to you the ONLY accurate and entirely formidible 'training' MUST be done on a real flightdeck. There is a cross over of this type of learning for real pilots amongst ANY other profession - Theory/Practicle |

![]() If you must take sides, at least be sure to choose your friends carefully. I'm trying to defend aspects of the sim and made that very clear on my original post and topic change. It was a partial defense for your comments that simulated knowledge of aircraft systems and locations of buttons and procedures does bear accurate resemblance to that on the real flight deck. My comments about personally having some flight experience is true but as I like to sim as well 'I've been tarred with the same brush' Most of these ppl on here 'have got it in for MSFS' because of your continual 'I know best attitude' and lack of full and detailed responses to counter their negative replies. Because of this ANY comment made by ANY simmer means nothing!!!!!!!! I believe if information has been cross referenced by many accurate sources then it's deemed, by propabilities, to be true and doesn't physically have to be experienced by oneself. Even if we got Oskar Wagner on here, a REAL A320 pilot and a long time FSX fan, to write about what a REAL Airbus does Maxwell and the rest of them would say CRAP, or bOB to discuss rotaries. Even if they said the EXACT same as us it would mean nothing. Dudley Henriques is a real pilot too and offers his techical knowledge to software vendors as far as I'm aware of and worked closely with the likes of RealAir - but again that means nothing to these ppl. I'm sure there a more 'skeletons' in this 'closet' of a forum who keep quiet!!!!!!!!!! I used to log into this group the odd time and now remember why I stopped as it's all pathetic. I'm out of here!!!!!!!!!!! Ibby |

In article df56c4f0-02b3-45b8-9331-
, says... Relevance? (we're (you *were) talking autolands, not approaches or even cruise flight). -- Duncan- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - This all stems from earlier posts here on whether a NOVICE pilot during an emergency could control an aircraft and successfully land it. It does not! It stems from YOUR post that "MOST landing are autolands". They are not. -- Duncan |

![]() "Ibby" wrote in message ... You are both flying a desk, dumb ass.- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - Now this is just childish. Most of this group argue that a simmer has NO knowledge whatsoever of what occurs inside a real aircraft because he has never set foot inside that model for which he is 'familiar' with. When evidence is placed in front of you that a REAL 747-400 has an audible alarm on autopilot disengagement you still throw insults back saying 'you are wrong'. Going back to the original comments on whether a novice could land this aircraft on an emergency under guidance this entire video clip clearly shows all that is required. ATC are giving the pilot heading, speed and altitude commands and he is adjusting the MCP. He is NOT flying the aircraft, the autopilot is and with adequate instruction others could adjust the appropriate knobs too as the are ALL on the Mode Control Panel (as clearly demonstrated on this clip). The AP is controlling the throttles and elevator trim etc to maintain the course etc as entered on the MCP. The pilot COULD have done a full autoland on runway 28L as LAND3, Rollout and Flare were all armed and confirmed by the pilot. By switching on the autobrakes the autopilot and autothrottle system would have cut the throttles at 50ft, flared the aircraft and autobraked whilst keeping the aircraft on the centreline without the pilot even touching the controls or manual braking. If you dont believe it go ask a 747-400 captain. Ibby But your desk still didn't move. |

Since the behavior of the sim matches the behavior of the real aircraft, what reality is lacking in simulation? You have been give this answer many different way, examples and from different people yet you continue to ask. Got a comprehension problem? |

![]() "Ibby" wrote in message ... You are really stuck on this warning bell thing. Have you had your hearing tested lately? Because that is one issue you lot said directly to myself was a LIE. You lot made out that EVERYTHING we say is utter CRAP. I originally questioned how I couldn't understand how the russian pilot failed to notice the AP being switched off as I know from both the sim and videos on real flightdecks that the Boeing 747 and 737's have them but according to you lot THEY DONT because the 'desk pilot' says so. But do I get an educated response saying 'well as we are only GA pilots and also haven't physically flown a 747 you may be correct but this particular Russian model didnt have an alarm' we just get a childish 'f@=k you' Ibby No, but now you are a liar. I never said any such thing, simboi. |
