I was told, years ago, (30?), by an engineer who designed autopilots for commercial aircraft that they (the autopilot mechanism) could be programmed, at the time, to taxi the plane out of the hangar, taxi down the runway, take off, fly to destination, then taxi to the gate and stop. Anyway, that is how competent the autopilots were then.
