### Comment:
well, i won't argue that that's the case for those, but... i tried to research this more and was unable to fund too much useful info on the role of flight engineers in more modern aircraft. wikipedia says they started getting rid of them in the 80's due to the capacity of more modern circuitry, but it makes no mention of the 747, or the concorde... both of which had that role. the concorde may have even kept two crew on board for FE role so that they could switch off and rest.

### REPLY:
I’m in the process of getting my flight rating on the 74-400 and -800 and I can assure you there is no flight engineer. All systems are monitored by myself and the pilot and the computer does the rest.
