Does anybody know what kind of avionics Ameriflight planes have? Just curious. I was reading on that austincollins.com site and he was saying that the Flight Express planes have pretty much bare minimum IFR equipment. I did the FAM flight with Airnet a few months ago and all of their planes from what I was told have GPS and AP.

Also, basic autopilots are being installed in the BE99's, whereas it's standard in other aircraft like the Metros.
My personal opinion is that they are a tremendous asset in unfamiliar territory, just don't become dependent on them. I've never felt sharper than I did when the autopilots weren't available.
