WILLARD NICKISCH, PILOT: I've got an autopilot that won.t release and
it wants to pull me down into a dive.


Ummm... If I were Willard, I'd have pulled the autopilot circuit
breaker. Strange no one thought of that.


On the older PA28s, you can't pull the breakers (e.g. 1969). They are
recessed. Having read this, I'm wondering about carrying something
with a blade sharp enough to slip under the cap to pry it out.
