Cleared for Takeoff
So here's a question for you CFII's and examiners - when giving the practical to your IR student in his own aircraft with IFR GPS panel and coupled AP, how much actual AP time are you going to put the student through? The full monty or just enough to demonstrate familiarity with it? I always assumed that the examiner would not let me "cheat" by using the AP until and unless I demonstrated I could hand-fly if the AP failed - what's the real world picture here?
I'm not IR rated, but expect to start that way this summer, just want to know what to expect.
