Pegasus77:

You don't switch "the autoland" on for landing, there is no such switch. In low visiblity ops, you leave the autopilot on untill after landing. This is done in FOG, that means hardly any wind and low visiblity.
I know what you mean, but don't over-generalize; I could take you to some lovely islands where you can experience the seasonal delights of high-speed (30kt+) fog...

Back on-topic, could someone familiar with the way the Candian TSB operates take a guess at when they'll release preliminary data from the FDR readout?
