Thanks, EXWOK.
I was involved with tweaking the autostabs in those very earliest days... and it's still satisfying to this day to hear from the "users" we got it right!
It really was a very hands on aeroplane - probably the last type out of LHR where one routinely tracked NDBs and VORs every departure...
NDBs? You're kidding, no?
