I have a lot of respect for any kind of airliner. Although you might think that the autopilot can do everything, you realize at the latest when programming the f*** FMS that it takes a lot of work and knowledge. And at the end of the day, landing an A310 is no fun either, when the Vatsim controller sends you into 2 holding patterns and changes the runway.
For me, flying those big stuff is too much work and I really miss the chilled beer during the sightseeing flight.
