Here are my major issues with this incident:

When you pass the descent point for your destination the Airbus gives you a tone and CAS message along with VNAV bars on your display.

When you pass your last fix in the FMS (their destination in this case) the Airbus autopilot goes into heading hold with a tone and multiple CAS messages your big NAV display.

No way that physically alert pilots could miss those signals and tones. They are intentionally loud enough to wake a sleeping pilot......

The FAA already thought about this scenario years ago.

Thanks for the info. That’s what I would have thought. I mess around with flight simulator, and it has all kinds of bells and whistles on it, especially on auto pilot.
