And the AP's are still !!!!e. You just think its about to capture LOC then it runs out of servo trim and buggers off in the wrong direction usually decending rapidily approaching Vmo. Not that there are many AP machines out there I think only 20 were produced and they are heavy.
And this aircraft is CAA approved for public transport?
To carry how many?
How can that be?
What country is this? The Belgian Congo?
I thought that the "CAA approved" Trislanders going to Jersey were totally outrageously unairworthy heaps of !!!!e, but it seems that the payment of an AOC approval fee is a fix for all the things which could not be fixed with duct tape.
If the bit I quoted is really true then there is something deeply perverted with aviation regulation in the UK. It might also help explain why there are so many "professional pilots" here on p p r u n e with perverse attitudes e.g. believing that the ATPL ground school is somehow relevant to flight. And it would explain a lot of other stuff which is deeply wrong with aviation here.
Any plane which does what MJ says should be
grounded before further flight.
