I tend to believe them. The shuddle is landed by computer. The best
airplane ever made, the SR71 Blackbird was landed by computer and if
the computer was out and the pilot had to take over it was considered
an emergency landing and the plane was routed to one of the emergancy
landing strips. It is only the best pilots that flew that plane and the
ones I knew sure didn't want to bring it in by stick.
With modern sensors and modern automatic control theory and the current
processors to implement it, the computers will shift much smoother,
more efficiently than any human could ever do.
i love when this subject comes up. this went on with another horse list and i
always notice that nobody mentions that its cheaper to replace a clutch than
a transmission.
i love sticks but quite a few people had told me, no matter how good you
drive, the horses get a rougher ride than if you tow with an automatic.
i tend not to believe them.
do they make a stick shift diesel RV with 4 wheel drive? that would be cool!
