Technology is not magic from the gods. It is built by people who try to anticipate all the things that can go wrong with a system. However, if they miss something, and the system ends up in an undefined state, your best chance at not dying is with a human being improvising using their experience and knowledge as a guide. | |

What about A/P disconnecting when fed with inaccurate air data (AF-447)? In addition this is not true. There is no airliner which can operate landing gears automatically, at least not a civil one. | |
