So the NTSB didn't understand he was doing a cat 2 approach and had to manually land?????? If it was an MD80, I have lost autopilot and autothrottle below 300 ft on a cat 1 and recovered and landed with no go around with the same airline. MD80's are full of surprises. Hopefully we don't replace them with the A320 as rumored. Then we have worse problems. At least the MD80 will do exactly what you want, even if it's wrong.
