...autopilot by a bunch!
Yesterday, while at FL330, the Airbus kept doing dutch rolls...about a degree or so left...right...left about every 2 seconds or so. I told my wife to look out of the window at the horizon and watch the wingtip go up and down...for over 2,000 miles! The last Airbus I flew on last spring, did the same thing.
Imagine my $7,000 ADI II rock solid stable, no dutch rolls, compared to the A321's AP at a gazillion dollars! We are blessed in this experimental world with some of the most outstanding equipment at incredibly competitive prices.
Best,
