September 19, 200916 yr Good day all. I have a simple question I'm sure somebody can answer. After autolanding, it seems like my rudder turns all the way to one size. To fix that so I can taxi, I press disengage on both autopilots. When doing that it unlocks the rudder, but then the computer system keeps saying over and over something in the lines of autopilot off, autopilot off. Any ideas how to avoid both issues?

It's the AP disconnect button.Just to reiterate: You need to hit the autopilot disconnect button twice. Once to disable the autopilot and a second time to silence the aural and PFD warnings.

September 19, 200916 yr Just some extra info, the reason that it looks like the rudder is stuck, is that when you don't shut down the AP it will keep on following the ILS so when you get past the ILS it will still try to keep it on a heading back to it ( the signal is at the beginning of the runway) do noting and you will head back to the signal again. normally the AP is cut off about 500 ft above ground before tuchdown.Hope this helps out......Gr Ruud
