Another automation dependency situation when going to manual flight is considered an emergency for some pilots?
Really is upsetting to me personally, because I for one know the feel of the aircraft you have (and I fly just C172's!!) is to me an experience I always look forward to and basically what we have in recent years is people who'd prefer to swtich on the autopilot when airborne and off at the DH on landing - what happened to actually FLYING? It seems many AF pilots lack the understanding to fly effectively, or that they are simply thought to over-rely on automation, the latter seems obvious after AF447.
Another highlight seems to be 3 seconds of disagreement on the direction to fly from 29:57 to 30:00
The mind boggles.
