Crack on CT be interesting to see what the differences are between what we all have been taught. I would imagine that the latest GA avionics will have a slightly different philosophy to what I am used to.
Personally I wouldn't, but then again I have a ****e AP if fitted which i wouldn't trust. And personally think that looking out the window is the focus not head inside monitoring what george is doing or punching numbers in. And if you can see the runway why use the automatics?
The mode selection and target altitude you set for the segments below MSA is also worthy of discussion.
