  • Emergency Autoland is the latest layer of embedded automation in Garmin's Autonomi family of flight technologies for the G3000 integrated avionics suite. Coupled with an autothrottle, the autopilot's Emergency Descent Mode and Electronic Stability and Protection, the system ultimately puts the aircraft back on the runway when the pilot can't. With final FAA certification pending, Autloland is expected to be included in the production type certificates for the 2020 Piper M600 turboprop single and the Cirrus Vision Jet. AVweb contributor and Aviation Consumer magazine Editor-in-Chief Larry Anglisano flew with Garmin's full Autonomi system in both aircraft and prepared this field report.

      @Richard Ren That is already implemented; The reason you are told NOT move the controls is that when you do it disables the autopilot and switches to manual control.
      No need to push a button just fly the plane and press the auto-land button again if you want the system to land for you again.

    This technology is simply amazing to me. Of course, back when I got into aviation, things like NDB approaches, DF Steers and manual E6B flight computers were the norm. I still remember how amazed I was when they upgraded the old coffee grinder(manual tune) radios in the aircraft and soon after, I got to use my first RNAV unit. In fact, in later years(80's) when the company installed the Apollo 604 Loran in my aircraft, that was like Star Trek tech. Yes, I'm old...lol.

Regulators and Insurers would always prefer something that at least attempts to get them down safely on a runway with emergency services standing by.

Any deadheading company pilots on board would be first choice to save the day of course. What the heck happens when a pitot tube clogs up with ice and sends erroneous info to this automated system, may or may not be worked out yet. But , it is a fascinating subject.

    Seems like it should auto activate like a deadman’s switch if the PIC doesn’t respond to a periodic alarm which requires acknowledgement. E.g. every 10 minutes of no input to the PFD, a signal must be answered. The PFD displays a two digit code which must be entered into the keypad which would not just verify the PIC is awake but entering the correct digits would also guard against hypoxia impairment. If the PIC was actively using the PFD then no code challenge would occur. Requiring a button to be pushed to activate wouldn’t work in case of a PIC medical condition preventing manual activation.

      The Garmins already have something like this for hypoxia -- it auto-descends to lower altitude if it determines you are not alert. I imagine that if you don't recover alertness, it will transition to autoland in that case. So, the only thing missing would be the same sort of alertness detection below the hypoxic altitudes.

      Because a pilot is not just someone applying pressure on the stick. The machine can aviate, navigate and even communicate for you to an extent, but you are still the brain, the manager of the whole situation.
      The machine can't come up with creative solutions to exotic problems, it can't see beyond the sensors and it can't do what it wasn't designed to do. Meanwhile, humans are incredibly creative and inventive, have great situational awareness and can easily interact with other humans. One complements the other well.
      This kind of tech has been used in military fighter aircraft for a while now, so it would make sense to look at the future of these to guess what is the future of civil aircraft.
      While drones have taken certain missions, they are fundamentally limited (depends on active communications, limited intelligence) and by themselves cannot replace manned aircraft. However, we see projects like in France where the next gen strategy is to essentially have a single or a small group of manned fighters with a fighter drone escort which they can command from their aircraft. What I would learn from this is that it's extremely hard to keep humans out of the loop entirely, but we might need less of them in the future to reach the same capacity as before.
      This brings the idea of the single pilot airliner. But does it even make sense? Being a first officer before being a captain is a necessary learning experience if the airline wants to get more captains for its fleet, and during that time he/she is also a pretty handy pair of hands. The crew isn't even that expensive compared to the cost of a commercial flight. So, reducing the crew to zero is currently impossible and reducing it to 1 is not that practical for most missions.
      People scream "but AI!", but AI is really an overhyped technology currently. This system here is using about as much AI as most factory automation uses, and it is impressive because of how efficient it is, how many systems it affects and how it is available on light aircraft on which automation is a new thing. Truth is, AI is really, really not where people think it is. We have tools like machine learning which can produce sometime spectacular results, but also spectacular failure, and if (or rather when) we will manage to create an intelligence capable of displacing pilots, that same intelligence will be capable of displacing pretty much every human from its job.
      I currently work in IT with a background in EE and industrial automation. I spent most of my earlier career in 3D printing and other additive manufacturing tech. I'm sick of it and currently studying to be a pilot. If I'm going to be pressing buttons all my life, I'd rather do it in the air.
