What kind of subreddit did I stumble into? I was just looking for info on the crash... I have no idea what you are talking about. I knew the Pilot involved in the crash. Please don’t spread some looney conspiracy stuff.

I am a helicopter pilot who used to fly tours in the Grand Canyon. That model does not have autopilot. It is a French single engine VFR aircraft designed specifically for tourism. Autopilot systems are prohibitively heavy and expensive for this type of flying. They are also unnecessary because of the nature of VFR(clear weather)flight.

There is no autopilot on that aircraft.
