Autopilot – no, the latency in the system is too significant. All calibration runs are hand flown. :eek:
RADALT – PNF monitors and calls-out indicated ALT every 5 seconds.

Awesome. So there is no need to put up a GS antenna if I use a diplexer. I have one of those on hand. That is one less job to do. I have been busy replacing all the co-ax with RG400U and trying to get the rest of my antenna’s up to snuff.
I accept I am only a poor second the Airforce One spec Diamond that @Dave_Phillips is flying about in
