Default Coordinated turns without rudder, and autopilots

Your simulated autopilot in your simulated Baron appears to make
"coordinated turns" without using the simulated rudder because that's how
Microsoft wrote the software.


No, that's not it. That would require special coding. I can't imagine
writing special code just to simulate something that doesn't match real life,
when not writing the code would result in behavior that _does_ match real
life.

And the Baron I fly wasn't created by Microsoft.
