If I was as smart enough as some of the ninjas I've talked to about this I might have. It takes more mental gigahertz and hard drive space than I have. Some really bright ones who just aren't quite there yet on the book knowledge can be taught. Others like me are just dumb grunt line dogs and that's OK; I just don't want to see pilots lose out on already negotiated CBA bennies, especially when it has known cascading effects.

I don't have what it takes to be an NFL coach either, but that doesn't stop me from knowing that when you're one yard away from a win you let Marshawn Lynch have the run instead of a cutsey screen pass all day and twice on Superbowl Sunday.

As for the ACE app becoming the fully functioning error catching battle station its set out to be, I'm rooting for it.
