Part one of an American Airlines training video presented by Captain Warren VanderBurgh on automation dependency. It grew out of a program on wake turbulence avoidance, and this restored version has the audio cleaned up.
HN cites it as the famous lecture on over-reliance on automation and on when to drop to a lower level of automation, applicable well beyond aviation.
