Any suggestion that 'Hey! Let's just do it with freighters!' ain't going to go down terribly well with those living under the approach.
Last time an autopilot dropped out on me I was on a Cat 3 into Frankfurt.
The fog bank was, by now, halfway down the runway so, rather that start all the paddling in stuff, I just continued for a manual landing - sorted!
Let's see Mr Automatic do that
