Configuring these is very difficult (for a non-pilot) and it might rely on airport-side equipment that not all airports have.

- wl 5y agoConfiguring an autopilot is not that difficult when someone is telling you exactly what to do. It's also more likely to have a good result vs. relying on underdeveloped stick and rudder skills. In a situation where a non-pilot is pressed into flying an airliner because of pilot incapacitation, tiny municipal airstrips without ILS aren't really an option, anyway.
