the pilot monitoring later provided testimony that he was monitoring the alignment with the runway.
Like moths to the light, they all look at the runway...

I don't like the term complacency. That crew were not complacent; they were out of their depth.

Gums had better not read that report; he'll say it confirms we're all nuts saying what a wonderful system the autothrottle is!
