This is an article from an Aussi publication that was posted on another site. First I think its a great article. Second it is a reminder IMHO that over reliance on automoation in the cockpit even in our GA planes can be dangerous. Third it just makes me a bit skidish about Airbus, there have been a couple of this incidents. That said I don't know that Boeing does not now do that same with their planes.
Crashes, as the piece suggests are down dramatically over the past 19 years but I do wonder if that is due to automation.
