After a great burger run, my wife Cindy requested a bit of “pinch hitter” training on the autopilot. She worked on HDG mode for lateral plus ALT, PIT and VS modes for vertical control. What are your thoughts on how to progressively acquaint your non-pilot right-seaters with how to take over the aircraft if you are out of commission? What training sequence would you use… radio first, then hand flying in cruise, then autopilot? What about preparation for landing? Your thoughts?
Thanks for your insight and enjoy the flight!
