Really well-made multi-camera clip... basically a how-to for a visual approach using the autopilot.

Added that to my favorites.  The pilots sound just like the voices in my Captain Sim 707  ;D

I sat in the jumpseat of a 744 from over Vegas into LAX for a very similar live experience in the days when you could do this (before 2001). Never to be forgotten & this was like a deja vu. Thanks for posting.

Nice video, thanks for that. It shows me what's going on in the cockpit first hand.    :o
