"Hey genius, that's not new technology."


Hmm...so reading comprehension is not your strongest asset, eh?  Because if it were, you would have noticed that I didn't say it was "new technology."  Rather, I said, "...new development in helicopter technology."  What that means...and what most adults with at least a high school education understood...is that the 505 is the first "small" (i.e. single-engine, five seat) helicopter to implement Garmin's wonderful new avionics package/autopilot.  (And actually, the way the autopilot servos work *is* new technology, but never mind that.) 


The fact that it's got an emergency feature that will bring the ship back to level flight while at the same time protecting it from low-G situations is quite remarkable for a two-blade rotor system.  It shows that Garmin has put a LOT of thought into this system.  I...I'm not quite sure why an actual helicopter pilot would minimize the significance or importance of such a development, considering how many I-IMC accidents occur in our industry.  Ohhhh, that's right, that's never happened to *you* and so it's not a problem for anyone else either.  Right?  I mean, isn't that how helicopter pilots think?


I will readily admit that I am not a genius.  But I *can* recognize that the 505, with its FADEC-controlled engine and advanced avionics and now autopilot, is a new development in helicopter technology - just as Michael Maya Charles did.  That fact that you don't is kinda sad.  Typical, but sad.


So carry on, bruh.  I literally cannot wait for your next ranting, immature, homophobic post.  (Here, I'll even set it up for you!)  It would give me such pleasure.
