- Automation design limits the authority of a pilot to perform a
function even though he/she still has responsibility for it. (pc12)
- Reversion to lower levels of automation disables built in
protections, possibly leading to unsafe conditions if pilots
continue to rely on them. (pc15)
- Automation controls are designed so that they are difficult to
access and activate quickly and accurately, or easy to activate
inadvertently. (pc37)
- Automation is too complex to understand and use effectively.
(pc40)
- Automation is not thoroughly tested before use and it may not
perform correctly under certain conditions. (pc115)
- Automation designers have difficulty in making good decisions
about allocating functions to humans or to automation, leading
to poor function allocation decisions. (pc117)
- Automatic flight control systems use a different strategy of
control than the pilot, leading to the pilot's loss of situation
awareness and pilot errors. (pc122)
