I don't think you can land an airplane on autopilot.
Apparently, you can. My parents and I were talking to two United pilots once while sitting in Buena Vista near Ghirardelli Square and drinking Irish coffees, and they were commenting that everyone thinks that landing must be the hardest part, but apparently it can (if necessary) all be done pretty much automatically. The hardest part is actually taking off, it seems.
And, um, maybe Jack gets proof of Lauren's, ah, two-timing, and tells Vaughn to break up with her?
