Good idea for everyone to click off the AP in actual once in while to keep those skills sharp. We had an MEL AP/FD for a few days and had to shoot all apps to mins because of cigs. Fun times!!
Don't you know, haven't you heard, you never got the Memo?

These are Jets - and they're made to be flown on automation! We can't hand-fly these things...much less without the FD! Who do you think we are? Pilots?! And what do you think these are? Airplanes?
