    @nepfag @avia And also handle trim runaway because it's literally a PPL instruction item. I learned how to handle trim runaway on my, like, third flight ever. Just keep a good hand on the flight controls to prevent uncommanded movements (use your fucking muscles), pop the electric trim circuit breaker, and do your best. On mechanically simpler planes like Cessna 172s (the most produced aircraft in history) you can completely counteract full trim runaway purely by force on the flight controls. I remember one instructor even jamming the trim wheel to fully deflected position during unusual attitude recovery training to see how I'd handle it. Super easy.

    The problem is when you have a computer programmed by overworked underpaid imported retards that's counteracting your every move. Don't trust computers with your life.
