Wearing Bose X's and boozing with a crew of 3 ain't that bad. The bird demands to be flown, but is a joy to hand fly. If the runway is visible under the nose you can get it there. We don't get in ****ing contests about which mode to use on descent planning. If we would just quit handing off all the day flying to the bus I'd be happy flying this beast a long time.

You make it sound like keeping it around is a BAD thing. Don't dis' the girl...

No, I'm not saying that. I really enjoy flying the "2"...it lets me be a pilot. It's just that I can't hear my kids and wife screaming at me...
