There's a reason autopilots were developed, namely, that it's very tiring to
hold the controls for hours and hours. It's true that you need not grip them
continously, but neither can you ignore them for very long if you have no
autopilot.

You are still a babbling, know nothing of the real world, arrogant, idiot.

One of the first things my instructor did during training was to have
me fly a short cross country with my arms folded across my chest
maintaining course with rudder after trimming out the airplane.

Unless in turbulance, I typically have two fingers on the yoke most
of the time.

And I have an autopilot which is seldom turned on.
