Having read the (just 2 pages) report, maybe I'm being dense, but don't see the "why the crew was sacked". It appears that the autopilot disconnect/reconnect was followed immediately by g/a action by the crew - I would have thought this was exactly the right response.

Am, I missing something obvious?
