What if the plane's on autopilot though? How easy is it to take it off that and put it back in human control? I wonder if there's just a big button that says 'Autopilot On/Off', or if you just have to turn the steering wheel/stick and it kicks in (like the brake with cruise control) or if it's a combination of buttons.
