AirTruck, another EU example of the desire of the Belgians, Germans and Frogs to tell trained pilots what to do with over-computerization and excess meddling, backed by trade infringing anti-competitive subsidies and dishonest business practices. Those slimy rats keep forgetting that is was US and British built aircraft that saved their helpless arses during WWII.

"..A passenger jet which crashed into the Atlantic last week transmitted 24 error messages before disappearing off the radar. The loss of the Airbus A330's autopilot was among the system failures reported, claim investigators.." .. timesonline.co.uk .. An autopilot is a fatigue reducing "..flight aid..", it's not supposed to replace pilots regarding who is in control of the damn airplane.

It was an AirTruck that crashed into the Hudson River, also. In that case the passengers and crew were lucky to have an American trained pilot who knew how to fly by the seat of his pants "with no engines". .. Chesley "Sully" Sullenberger III, a US Airways pilot since 1980 with 19,000 hours of experience. He had served as a U.S. Air Force F-4 pilot for seven years.

Moral of Story: The EU are a bunch of megalomania 2-bit cheats; fly on American airplanes with American trained crews - if you want to get there and get home.
