The US Federal Aviation Administration is warning that airline pilot skills are being eroded with increased autopilot use and now wants pilots to fly their jets by hand more often to avoid getting rusty.

I think the Air France 447 and the Colgan Air Flight 3407 have pretty much shocked the aviation industry.  Two disasters where the pilots pulled back on the stick in a aerodynamic stall after the autopilot disconnected.

I agree with the report. Stand by for loops and barrel rolls!  ;D
