What a great aircraft..handles very well, a wee bit heavy landing, but its a fun AC to fly....I am having one problem tho, cannot get the auto pilot to come on....all buttons are there..but will not respond ??..probably some stupid thing I am not doing ??..any help would be appreciated.ThanksJim

Make sure the 4 generator swtichews on the throttle quadrant are on.I also had to make a shortcut for the avionics master, which I then have to activate as wellallen

Thanks for the tip, but all the generator awitches are on....so must be something else going on....still cannot turn on any of the auto pilot functions ??.Thanks tho..Jim
