ABSTRACT:
In an aircraft autopilot there is provided a first circuit selectively actuatable to connect the glide slope adapter to electrical power during the existence of a glide deflection signal, the glide slope adapter being disconnected from electric power when either (a) the altitude hold is inoperative, or (b) the altitude hold is operative and at least one of the following exists: the radio switch LOC NORM is off, or glide slope coupling has been achieved; a second circuit for maintaining the autopilot under control of a preset heading on the pictorial navigation indicator when the radio coupler is preset for radio navigation control including a third circuit for placing the automatic pilot under control of the radio coupler and interrupting heading control by the pictorial navigation indicator upon actual intercept of the omni occurring; and a selectively actuatable fourth circuit for disconnecting the console pitch signal from the amplifier and interconnecting a pitch signal of predetermined fixed magnitude to the amplifier, and simultaneously energizing a signal light.
