Having done over 400 automatic approach/land (autoland) maneuvers in the 'ole L1011, not once did I have to disconnect the autopilot(s), or have a 'tip off' due to vehicles, aircraft etc on the runway, or near thereto.
With autolands, there is nothing better than the 'ole Lockheed tri-motor....bar none.
It simply doesn't get any better, even though the design is well over 30 years old.
Smooth, smooth...smooth, and supremely accurate.
Ah...Lockheed
