During the flare, you'll be looking along parallel to the runway and will only be able to see 350m.


One only gets caught once .. the first time. Thereafter, one has a heightened respect for ground fog.
Same goes for low drifting/blowing snow, you may be able to see the runway from 10 miles out, at 50 ft you see... nothing.
