So you don't think your Airbus fly-by-wire system requires computers to work with it's relaxed static margin?  Heck, even your throttles aren't connected directly to the engine fuel controls.  BTW, your engine fuel controls are largely computers as well.  None of those are bad things, but you do indeed need computers to fly modern airplanes.

Jeez, man... Lighten up... Just making light of the cpu message. And you don't "need" computers to fly the Airbus. I tire easily of this old argument... It's an airplane just like a Boeing... It's just more automated, which makes my job a lot easier, and flying my Lancair on days off that much better.
