Hi, everyone.

I'm playing with the Bank Limit within the MCP. I've discovered that by
changing the Bank Limit, it changes what the Flight Director commands during

turns, but it doesn't appear to impact the way the A/P turns. I'm learning,

then, that the A/P doesn't use the F/D as its command.

Anyone else notice anything relating to this?

Warm regards,
David

I think the bank limit was added to work with the new Beta A/P mode, but
that, because there are so many problems with it at present Enrico has disabled
it. Check the "changes" text file for the MCP.

The current/original A/P in the MCP makes use of some FS A/P functions and FS
doesn't have a dynamic bank limit adjustment.
