Question for Instructors and wannabe Instructors
Let's say you have a student going for his IA and he has an autopilot in his airplane. Many of his hours has been employing said AP, so he's very proficient with it, but his hand-flying skills are barely within PP PTS standards.
What's your standard tolerance you like to see from students? What's your personal standard for your own flying? How much hand flying per day in IMC is reasonable for a rated pilot? IA Student? What techniques would you employ to improve tolerances and duration times?
