One such inequity. By Proxy, the designers of AB LAW were flying the LOC right along with the pilots.
The Pilot apparently misconstrued, mishandled, and became out of the control loop.
The LOOP was integrated into the airframe from the outset. It's shortcomings, no less then the Pilot's, are on display.
"Doing what was designed", is not a defense, it is an indictment.
