Default AUTOPILOT PROS & CONS

If you want to get spoiled, fly a $500,000 Sperry autopilot
in a King Air. I've flown a few hundred different Bonanzas,
from late 1940 models to the B36TC, if they had an
autopilot, [all the ones built after about 1965 that I flew
did] they had electric trim.


Try the autoflight in the 767 or L-1011, and would never look back at
the King Air.
