Default Rudder for final runway alignment (?)

It can happen, and has.


But you have a way to disengage the autopilot. You have no way to
disengage fly-by-wire; there is no manual override.

Which misses the point of my statement... "What do you do if the autopilot
does not disengage or is 'jammed'?" You need to be familiar with "What are
you going to do if it does not disengage or is 'jammed'?" I know there are
some procedures to follow for this situation, but not familiar with them as
the planes I fly do not have an autopilot.
