I think the authors of GASIL do a generally good job in producing something
that is bound to be didactic. But this is one of a few examples of really
awful science. So the autopilot makes an uncommanded roll and one of the
passengers happens to find a mobile phone on. So the mobile phone must be
responsible for the autopilot issue. Yeah right...


My KAP 140 AP made an uncommanded roll to the right after I invoked it
at cruise a few months ago. No cell phones were on.

An investigation by avionics later discovered that one of the servos was
defective and needed to be replaced.
