- Pilots cannot disengage automation, resulting in limits to pilot
authority. (pc43)
- There is no effective philosophy for training pilots for automated
aircraft, resulting in inappropriate and inadequate training.
(pc67)
- Not enough information is provided for pilots to adequately
perform their tasks. (pc99)
- The traditional distribution of workload between pilots (e.g.,
between PF and PNF, between C and F/O) is modified under
automated flight, which may allow safety critical tasks to be
neglected. (pc104)
- Computer based automation makes the aircraft more complex
and tightly coupled (i.e., there are many components, they are
strongly linked, and failures may propagate more readily). This
increases the likelihood of accidents. (pc124)
- The presence of automation reduces inter pilot communication,
resulting in less sharing of information. (pc139)
