Can an A320 pilot fly the A380? - Without reading the manual!
A little experiment on my part to see if I can get to grips with an A380 as an A320 pilot. Airbus states that all modern Airbus flight-decks have the same underlying architecture and are so similar that no full type rating is required when moving from one type to another.
Let´s see if they are right.
