I'm working on an academic research about "automation and the transition of pilots from 'classic cockpit' to 'glass cockpit'". I was wondering if you could help me with a quick question.

What was the first commercial airplane with an autopilot system? I mean in service, not just in tests.

If you could provide me some sources, It would be even better.

Thanks a lot.
