Maximum use of automation is a culture that has evolved, it's prevalent among newcomers as well as old timers. I am not so sure just because they could do it, they still can. I have observed terrible performance in the sim and on the line. The deficiency lies in scan, hand-eye coordination, call it whatever. The characteristics of mental overload are striking.
So what kind of teeth does a safety bulletin have? This is nothing new, line pilots and training departments are well aware of the problem. Yet few do anything about it. It's just easier that way. What will change this time?
