I was wondering if anyone else is having this problem. If I am flying the fleet MD-88 with the auto pilot enraged while squawk box is connected my screen will flicker and the auto pilot will disengage. Some times it will take 20 minutes for this to happen and some times it will happen very 5 minutes. This only happens with the MD-88 when I am using squawk box. If squawk box is not running I don't have this issue. Thanks.

LOL, no. key board is tucked away. This only happens when using the MD-88 and SB together. The screen will flicker about .05 Seconds before the AP disengages.
