Do sim pilots log their time?

What is Category III c?




Not relavant to this newsgroup. And even if it was a pilot isn't
landing a Cat 3c airplane, the computer is.

Instrument approaches and landings are not relevant to a piloting
newsgroup? Why?

And even if it was a pilot isn't landing a Cat 3c airplane, the computer is.

Then why does the pilot have to be instrument rated?

How many times have you landed in zero visibility? You don't just
push a button.

In Cat IIIC you do.

He was wrong again. At least that is a consistent thing, for him.

Yeah... He is quite a phenomenon.

I have killfiled him, but when he makes a stupid one-liner remark that is
easily and factually refuted with a link, I just can't help myself.

I did, but that was not making his responses go away, so I have changed tactics.

I'm going to keep on him, let him dig a deeper hole, and give him more rope.

You ought to try it. It's like shooting fish in a barrel, with a 12 gauge
shotgun. g

Why bother? It's so easy to pick out his threads, even with the original
question nuked. Just look for the lamest ones. It's probably his.

The problem with that is you keep getting splattered with fish guts.

What I should do is write a macro or program to check threads and then
kill file the whole thread. It's amazing how the number of posts
drops.

OTOH I've always had a tendency to answer some out in left field
questions with a smart assed remarks and I seriously doubt I'm alone
in that. That being the case I'd hate to see some unwary soul led
astray.

No, you don't. There's quite a procedure to carry out an autolanding.

Did you by any chance check to see who wrote this article?

Not Cat 3c.

Yes, you do. It's required. Cat 3c is an autoland. The pilot is there
to monitor the electronics. He does not land the plane.
