    Default Autopilot question

    Is there a way to make the plane automatically stay on the green line programmed into the GPS? I know it can hold heading, but on long flights the heading changes because of the curvature of the earth.

    Ensure autopilot is on and set to GPS instead of NAV or just use the flight director switch and follow the cross-hairs on your artificial horizon.

    Autopilot on, GPS switched on, and then press the NAV button on the autopilot instead of HDG.
