Been on the 190 over 10 years. Only time one’s pressed the YD button is when you are in the sim and have to reposition whilst airborne. Doubt Embraer added it for that purpose but you never know
Yes the 190 can autoland, if equipped appropriately.
You get the YD function without the parallel rudder though, don’t confuse the two?
Hm, not sure what you mean?
There are different types of Y/D systems, some which couple directly on the same cables and pulleys connected to your pedals (cheaper system, as I understand, and for simpler small jets, like the one I currently operate)
Or like in my previous, the A320, where you don't feel the Y/D operation. Pedals not locked out, and not moving in response to the Y/D.
But I think that has been clarified in this thread.
The Embraer E-Jet series has a more sophisticated Y/D system, much like the A320 where you still can press the pedals and keep the Y/D engaged during Take off and landing.
Thank you all for the inputs!
