Doesn’t say anything about being on auto-pilot

Hi Steve
Obviously it’s a newspaper report and hence doesn’t detail if the auto pilot was engaged at the time of the co-pilot adjusting his crew seat.
Strange to be doing this after the captain left the flight deck.
Some ‘holes’ in this report but the significant thing is it happened around the same period as the fatal Mangalore crash.
