Re: 1/4 Mile Forward Visibility
It's always a welcome sight to see the runway appear when you are at or approaching minimums, especially after a long day/night.

Re: 1/4 Mile Forward Visibility
Cool video Mark,
You earn your money on approaches like that. Did one down to 300 RVR back in the day at TWA on a 757. Phil W.

Re: 1/4 Mile Forward Visibility
When my old man was a DC10 Capt, he used to just flip the "iron monkey" (autoflare/autopilot)and let that land the aircraft

Re: 1/4 Mile Forward Visibility
That ain't as big a deal as you might think...among professional airline pilots. Woj, don't you guys do CAT II approaches off the HUD?
At my airline, we can cut the visibility and ceiling that you see in my video by more than half and still land...safely. I'll try to capture one of those one day. Next time you are having a round of drinks in the cabin, remember to hoist one for the guys up front.  Happy New Year everyone! Mark
