correct but there is a need to do an autoland. It is not
*required* since the weather is good enough but the
need is still there.


Don't be silly. There's clearly no need to do an autoland in good weather.



correct but I was referring to jets asking to do a
CAT III approach for currency even though it is VFR.


We're talking about ILS critical areas when the tower is closed.

You see the reasons it is required to do
autolandings in good weather (not to land the plane but for currency)
and you still can't admit you are wrong. There is a need to do
autolandings but it isn't required to safely land the plane for
that particular approach. It is simply for currency and when
the need arrises.

I had you killfiled for a while and now I gotta admit you really
provide some good entertainment. So are you the debate club captain
in the high school you attend?

I have no problem admitting when I'm wrong, but I certainly am not going to
say I'm wrong when I'm right.

Gerald apparently is new to your "unique" style.

I know I am going to regret this: your share your knowledge better than
you used to, you're often less obtuse than you used to be, and of course
you generally (but not always) know what you're talking about.
