If this is true, how are coordinated turns done with the AP engaged?
With the L1011 type, SAS is used...Stability Augmentation System.
SAS provides full time, turn coordination and yaw damping...and during autoland maneuvers, runway alignment and rollout.
A superb arrangement...works good, lasts a long time.
