Hey 1515greenlight,

When the magic goes "poof," and you are left staring at the mode control panel wondering which buttons to push and when the last time you actually had your hands on a set of flight controls outside the terminal airspace, your guard/reserve FO will calmly fly and talk on the radio (yes, at the same time) and think how much easier it is to to do this while not having to still coordinate a successfull end to a wartime mission. You see, most of us flew without any magic, with great success, and under the most stressfull of flight conditions, before having to watch guys like you depend on automation.

Normally I'm easy going, but you just begged for a face shot.
