@m_swizzy22 1 hour ago @av8rshane491 CAT3 is flown in zero visibility and zero wind, fully automatic dual autopilot. This was a manual approach and landing in very bad visibility and strong winds. Following the ILS. CAT III ILS can not be done in windy weather is, even if the visibility is zero, the approach is manual, in fact, almost every landing is manual, some airlines fly manually from 1000ft AGL, some disconnect autopilot at 1000ft RA, some fly manually from the FAF, some fly the approach manually from the moment you establish on the localizer… you get my point? Only in 0 wind + zero vis it’s automatic, every other scenario is manual.
from https://youtube.com/shorts/wgMQ_6ZF60w?si=ztXDeqZlMteurKaQ apparently full autopilot cannot handle the slightest of winds so if both pilots eat a bad bean then the plane has to fy to an airport with zero winds - uness there is a 2 bean override option -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "massfire" group.
