What control disengages SAS and AFCS simultaneously?

• A. Autopilot Cut Button
• B. AFCS Disconnect
• C. SAS/AP Cut Button (Left Side)
• D. SAS/AP Cut Button (Right Side)

Answer: (C)

Disengaging SAS and AFCS at the same time is done with the SAS/AP Cut Button on the left side. This control is specifically designed to cut both the Stabilization Augmentation System and the Automatic Flight Control System in one action, handing manual control back to the pilot. The other options either affect only one system (for example, friends-only autopilot cut or AFCS disconnect) or involve a different side button that isn’t designed to sever both together. So the left-side SAS/AP Cut Button is the correct one for simultaneous disengagement.
