Are these the same outfit that ran a brand new one off of the runway into a wall because someone had disconnected some warning horns?

I've been saying for years now that we are in the downward swing of CRM. Everyone became incredibly aware of it after Tenerife, and they spent years building good CRM practices. Now, after years of not seeing anything even close to similar to that accident, crews are becoming complacent. We're going to see another bad accident before long.

Absolutely. Pilots are getting to the point where they almost can't actually fly anymore, they're trained to push buttons.

Which is how you need to be, especially in the last couple years. You aren't going to do your patient any good when that A330 or 767 that lined up for the wrong runway doesn't see you, and runs you over.

This is less about Airbus products and more about crew training and resource management in the cockpit IMHO
