Cirrus Perspective - Flight Director vs. Autopilot

This video is here to give a clear understanding of the Flight Director versus the Autopilot. Many times I have found that people think the Flight Director is the Autopilot or that the Autopilot is on. Flying with the Flight Director is a very powerful thing and set up.

Understanding the Flight Director starts at understanding:
- The Flight Mode Annunciator Panel (I call it the scoreboard)
- Active and Standby command modes
- Hand flying with the flight director versus the autopilot on and off.
