Sorry for the shit image quality but here’s another ad by the same company for a better idea of it

Flew over the may day rally in San Francisco.

They’re dabbing on us

    So you just make up an entirely fake system and argue that’s how stuff works in real life?

    That’s not how people have conversations dude.

      No more than you did. And you moved the goalposts a couple of times there.

      I’m still certain that that plane doesn’t have an autopilot … even one taken from a tractor.

        Pardon?

        Just because you incorrectly assumed that an autopilot gives full autonomous control doesn’t mean the other user moved any goalposts.

        Also,Cessna has autopilot, this could have been easily verified by you by doing a few seconds of research.

            Where? The original comment specified most. So it sounds like they understand an operator still does turns and other maneuvers.

              I interpreted it as the takeoff and landing were to be handled by the pilot, but everything else would be autopilot - as larger planes are capable of doing

                - as larger planes are capable of doing

                How many time are you going to repeat that and asked for a source before you realize that’s not actually a thing…?

                To quote you, “that makes no economic sense”, it’s also an option, it’s not on every single aircraft. The link I provided provides basically anything g yot could ever want to know about autopilot, but you’re never gonna read it, since you don’t want to learn, you just want people to listen.

                You just love making shit up and pretending it’s reality eh?

                Basic auto pilots are common and are like cruise control, on almost every plane, what you’re imagining doesn’t exist, and would only be installed on very few select planes.

                Give your head a shake dude. Like seriously do it and quite hard too.
