The BEA has already issued 10 new safety recommendations, including ensuring extra training for pilots on manual handling of a high-altitude stall, and says new safety recommendations will be issued in the final report on the accident, due to be published in June next year.
The autopilot version is best for people without any pilot experience, with the instructor periodically handing over one or two of the controls, but guests who do have some training as amateur pilots can take advantage of the manual mode.
