control is always maintained.
Aviate
117
The following is a list of priorities that apply to any situation encountered in flight. Pilots
must adhere to these priorities during every flight.
Once aircraft control is assured, pilots should set and verify the avionics are correctly

flight instruments. Use of an autopilot may assist the pilot with accomplishing these
tasks. Pilots should closely monitor flight parameters while programming various
avionics equipment.
Navigate
118
The following is a list of priorities that apply to any situation encountered in flight. Pilots

workload of programming the autopilot and potential for human errors. Hand fly
the aircraft to a safe altitude and engage the autopilot if desired when time and
workload permit.
