Went flying on last Sat. and checked out my AP system again. It's a nice option for kicking back and relaxing while in the sky. Works great. So I decided to use the AP to fly a simulated gps approach on the way back to the home airport and all went well till about 3 miles out where the AP got confused and started hunting the nose and became just generally unhappy. Not wanting to harm the AP I shut it off. Now I know the 496 is not app. certified, but didn't really expect it to get confused until over the runway. Has anyone else experienced this at 3-4 miles out, or am I the only idiot who tried it?
