Yeah, but you can't seem to see a lot of things, like reality for openers.

I'm sorry but that is just a bloody stupid reply so please try to grow
up this thread is full of childish etiquette. ANY real life
commercial aircraft has a VERY LOUD audible ALARM when the Autopilot
is disengaged (as well as a flashing red master caution switch) either
via the control bar on the MCP panel, the switch on the yoke or by
moving the control column excessively as in the case of an emergency.
The entire crew on the flight deck WOULD hear it. My comments have
NOTHING what so ever to do with using a flight sim they ARE based on
what DOES happen in a 737 and 747 for a start and sure the same on any
Airbus as well.
