StandardAero (Booth 2417) and Thales brought a working example of their to-be-certified StableLight four-axis autopilot for the Airbus AS350/H125 light single this week to Heli-Expo. The autopilot marks the culmination of a multiple-year project between the MRO provider and the French avionics specialist.
