and handfly also when the weather and circumsances are suitable.
Well that conveniently scratches all light aircraft IFR charters where either an autopilot is not installed (save servicing costs) or unserviceable (saves servicing costs).
How does one define when "weather and circumstances are unsuitable? After all, before the advent of super-cool automatics it was normal procedure for airline crews to fly Cat One ILS by hand. Now anything less than 1000 ft cloud base is considered auto-coupled material with flight directors and autothrottle and don't forget the autobrakes! As some wit observed on a previous forum, pilots have become data input processors, rather than airmen. A modicum of truth in that..
