1. Have the FO fly the plane. Always have no doubt on who is flying the aircraft and make sure someone is heads up the whole time.
2. Checklist and work the problem with the other FO (remember there are 2 on this leg). Put MX and dispatch into the loop and figure out the optimum solution.
3. More than likely dump and simply return to MXB if the problem cannot be fixed in the air. Remember: keep it simple. There is no real reason to land overweight in this situation, either.


A malfunctioning autopilot is not all that likely to cause a situation like this, but this can work for any mechanical issue.
