SQ have a requirement of 8 auto-lands within 12 months and the aircraft requires one every 28 days. Each Sim (every six months) gives out 4 auto-lands and any real Cat111 is a bonus. I averaged one real one a year, although when the fleet had ZRH it wasn't hard to pick up a couple extra there in winter.
The real lesson from this incident, is to tell or ask ATC if a coupled approach is required when LVP is not in force and get protected.
I find it distasteful to call the crew names. They got caught out very late in the flare. Should have disconnected etc but we were not there. There is a culture to lean on the automatics in some outfits, maybe this will change things.
