- smadurange 7y agoI think this is true. Also, in the Air Asia crash when pilot disengaged autopilot by mistake using a reset switch changing flight mode to manual. As far as I know, if the autopilot can't make reliable decisions, it rings alarm bells and disengages fly-by-wire. Looks to me like quite elegant design.
