Flight director (FD) modes integrated with autopilot systems perform calculations for more advanced automation, like "selected course (intercepting), changing altitudes, and tracking navigation sources with cross winds." [1] FD computes and displays the proper pitch and bank angles required for the aircraft to follow a selected flight path.
Instead, the autopilot assists the operator's control of the vehicle, allowing the operator to focus on broader aspects of operations (for example, monitoring the trajectory, weather and on-board systems). [1] When present, an autopilot is often used in conjunction with an autothrottle, a system for controlling the power delivered by the engines.
