It is not "that critical". APs need many other functions far more importantly than airspeed - many APs (in smaller aircraft) will have no IAS input at all.
Not that critical!
This was the reason for AP disconnect on AF 447 which subsequently led to the demise of the aircraft and all on board!
Well, we'll have to disagree then. Not sure there is any aircraft out there with such a system?
I know that there is no such system, my point is that there
should be.
At one moment you say you are SLF, and now you have the expertise to criticise the report.
I am SLF and I am entitled to form my own opinion, regardless of what any 'experts' may say.
