....but I really enjoyed the GF/ BA training on the L1011 ....
Well then, you experienced the very finest (at the time) as Lockheed was at the absolute forefront of automatic flight control systems intregration, bar none.
It is unlikely to have never been equaled..for an analogue system.
Very
very good...the Gold standard, at the time.
Lets see.
A twenty four year old L1011, all coupled up for an automatic approach/land maneuver, both autopilots engaged (four channels, monitored)...and it rolls on so smoooooothly, typical Lockheed.
The very finest.
Oh yes...made in America...with proper Rollers, of course.
