This to me says that the reliance of automation of systems has, and probably will continue to do so, lead to a loss of crew awareness of how the aeroplane actually works. The first
reaction to slow acceleration should have been to check the thrust. Not noticing the low setting until 800' agl is gross unawareness by the crew and they should have their backsides
well and truly kicked.
