Given the low level of software quality and the abundance of software defects in the X-Plane product,no one should ever use this Autopilot in the absence of an FAA / EASA certification approval. A Certification process which is first and foremost based on the establishment of a safety culture of "life critical" product development which Laminar Research does not currently practice, and which is currently "ad-hock". Safety critical systems must never be developed with the "worse is better" mentality.

"For a successful technology, reality must take precedence over public relations, for Nature cannot be fooled." Richard Feynman

This product is also not "revolutionary" in any way, as Austin Meyer hypes. NASA developed this technology over a decade ago during both the AGATE and SATS research programs.
