NwaNimo1: Autopilots already can. But it was clearly not set to do so, hence why it disengaged. |

Wow, this is an easy fixed. Have the stewardess do a 30 min check-in or have the pilots press a button every 30min to alert the crew that they are awake. On a lighter note. The noise the autopilot would have been making would have been crazy ..... wowowowowowowowowowobeeepbeeepbeeepringringrorngringring... -------------- would have woken up. |

sleek82: Pilots occasionally doze off / nod off or read a magazine. Its not that there are traffic lights . It would be rare for female pilots as they would be |

So this autopilot can be this accurate and reliable, how comes studying to be a pilot cost a great fortune and time only to fly the plane on Autopilot. This thing sef i no understand |

Auto pilot can land a plane but for it to do that the pilot was supposed to have started the decent so the auto pilot will synchronise with the ILS for decend NwaNimo1: 1 Like |

NwaNimo1: At the bolded, it is very possible only if: 1) The runway meet Category III C standard. 2) The ILS (Instrument Landing System) also meet the standard. 3) And the Avionics instrument onboard the aircraft has the necessary facility to receive and adapt accordingly. So many airfield worldwide hasn't met these standards except few and pilot training is also a shortfall. |

TimmyTen: What are you implying. Because of autopilot bot pilots are permitted to doze off. What about flight emergencies. They were rightfully suspended because they are at liberty to report fatigue and stress to the company, the union and finally the civil aviation authority if they are being overworked. What if the autopilot disengagement warning alarm was faulty?....MH370 all over again. |

Is not like that bro. Aircraft are not designed for pilot to sleep even one minute even when in autopilot mode you must not through the flight. thebosstrevor1: |
