Autopilot Question by
Jay Honeck
We have the Piper Autocontrol IIIB in our '74 Pathfinder. It has worked
fairly well since Day One, failing only when our vacuum instruments each
went Tango Uniform, in the space of six weeks.

Jay Honeck
IMHO, it's the little things that really set off an airplane's interior.
MU-2 Mike has done things like gold-plating his chrome parts, and I've seen
plenty of wood-grained panels in custom planes that look terrific.
Having recently had our interior completely redone in leather, we were...
