Textron Aviation has announced that its in-development Beechcraft Denali single-engine turboprop will come with Garmin’s Emergency Autoland system as a standard feature. According to the company, the Collier-winning Autoland system, which is designed to land the aircraft autonomously if the pilot is incapacitated, is being integrated into the Denali’s development and flight test program and will be available when the model enters service. Textron reports that its three Denali flight test articles have logged more than 1,300 flight hours to date.
