Observed this slack attitude on countless occasions which means crews rely blindly on the alerter sound to remind them of the approaching altitude
Yes the aural warning is suppose to be a reminder/back up rather than the driver as the crew set the FL/Altitude themselves and are suppose to be flying the aircraft! Too much reliance on that little chime me thinks
