I didn't read your article. My response was based on the OP's quote about the autopilot...and then I went on a tangent, all of which wasn't supposed to really be directed at you but to all of us. Really there is no need to ever characterize an autopilot as a "better" alternative to our own flying skills. The CRJ AFCS intercepts a localizer like a drunk airmail pilot.

So really, when I saw the quote about the autopilot, it set me off because it was in a popular public magazine article written by a pilot.

Anyways, to make it fair, I'm gonna buy and read the entire article.

I apologize for how my post came off. My apology is probably too little too late. You seem like you have good intentions. And you had the balls to come on here and take heat from A-Holes like me.

Best of luck with your future articles.
