You mean like pressing the "auto pilot off" switch and taking the yoke to level the plane? Asiana airline clearly had trouble with that maneuver when landing at SFO but this was straight, level flight at altitude.
This gives you a look at the cockpit. We don't know if this TV news simulated flight re-creation is accurate.
