Then the piloting skills come into play with a requirement for a detailed understanding of the systems integration and operation.

With a background in air carrier training and standardization, I have witnessed it in many pilots time and time again.  Whether the 145 series BK, the 109's, the 135 series, etc., all the pilots love the automation and the aircraft AFCS...It flies itself...Easy as can be.  Get these same guys into a Level D FFS and start failing the upper modes, AFCS, AHRS, ADC's, etc., and the pilot is completely transformed from a cool steely-eyed aviator into high stress and high anxiety pilot searching the cockpit for information on how to trouble-shoot and maintain control of the aircraft.
