Yes, the approaches are a pleasure to fly, but the step change in course
width can cause a coupled approach to give a small disturbance, for me.
If the needle isn't exactly centered at the point of switching,
my autopilot hunts for a few moments, until it stabilizes again.
It's a small amount, and not an operational problem, but it makes the GPS
approaches slightly less smooth than an ILS, which doesn't have that bump.
My autopilot is a Collins AP-107.
Who sees any similar effect with other autopilots?


Is this a GNS 480 that is giving the step changes? Do you see these
small incremental changes on your CDI or HSI?
