Approach and Autoland

Hey guys listen..u make me feel like a real pilot when im taking off and landing in the 727...
love the checklists and everything..its amazing...
one thing we could improve on would be the autoland feature..
The approach feature is very accurate and it lines me up with the ILS runway after
tunnin the ILS frequency of the runway...good job ...
I hear aircrafts can land themselves...Is this true? and if it is ,is that somethin u r currently
working on?...I dont mean to be lazy but its just fun seeing your aircraft land without the pilots intervention..
what do u think...let's go for it guys..i know u can do it..u know this is good for landing in a zero visibility weather as  well..

Neither the 727... 707... or the C-130 had autoland capabilities in the real world.... I wouldn't hold my breath to see it modeled for them here!!!   Wink

NATHAN..AS OTHER FLIGHT SIMMER REPLIED..THE 727 DOSE NOT HAVE AUTO LAND IN REAL WORLD..THAT TEC. CAME ABOUT EARLY IN THE 747s AND ALL AFTER THAT.757 767 ETC EVEN THE NEW AIRBUS A319 320 ETC WILL AUTO LAND ..THE 727 YOU WILL HAVE TO GET TO MINIMUM AND HOPEFULY SEE THE RUNWAY AND THEN MAKE THE LANDING YOURSELF..
