When loading an “in progress” flight, or a default scenario in which the
airplane is already fully powered and running, the IRS will default to an

choose from the menu above how you wish to interact with the IRS
alignment time requirement. You can choose from instant alignment to
an alignment period of the length you desire (in seconds!)
Joystick Control:
A/P Controls Override Option:
This option allows the user to enable the ability to override the autopilot
and autothrottle through use of the user’s hardware flight controls. In the
MD-11, the pilot can manually override the autopilot/autothrottles by
exerting a specific amount of force on the controls while the autopilot is
engaged.
