Hi...
 
I´ve found a sound file "apdisconnect" in the PA28´s sound-folder...Is there a autopilot and if yes, how can I engage it ?
 
Second Question: Where can I find the Manual of the PA28 Warrior ? Nothing found on JF-website and no PDF-file on my computer...
 
Thanks a lot, guys !

There is not an AP in the real warrior, but try pressing z,  also the HDG SEL ALT HLD etc will be on the Avionics panel.

It's probably an option to specify a new real Warrior to have Autopilot, but as the aircraft is mostly used as a trainer, they don't tend to have them. As such the Flying Club Warrior doesn't either.

The Seneca and the Archer III both have Autopilot systems though.
Kind regards,
Tom

The 'Z' key acts as a wing leveller, and you get the little 'autopilot disconnect' beep when you disconnect, so it's probably that.
