Autoland with only 1 AP active?

[Rhinozherous]

Hello!
Do we have to activate the second autopilot for autoland to work? Or is one active autopilot enough? The operations manual does not mention to activate the second autopilot, but I wanted to be sure.

Thank you!

I don't think so. Just leave it on dual ILS and course and don't disconnect the AP

Thank you!

Both autopilots are required to be engaged in order for an autoland to be performed (if they aren't both engaged, an amber NO AUTO LAND annunciator will illuminate during the approach).

The non-master autopilot will be engaged automatically during the approach if the same course and frequency is inputted into both VHF NAV radios.
