I had to admit that the final 'everything failed' scenario was the closst to the avionics fits I had been used to during my 3000 hours in the RAF! Not sure what lessons to draw from that
Heh.

Some of the automation whingers around here should spend a few years in Africa hacking around the game reserves in a DHC6-200 with a basic panel and an autopilot that can just about maintain straight & level on a good day.
