Had to use the slides once because of a positive bomb threat and smoke in aircraft having to return to MIA but nothing worth saying.

Flying is pretty much uneventful now days. That is good.
An autopilot disconnect is also nothing to do with this thread. It cropped up because you brought it up for no particular reason other than to bash your keyboard warrior style. STOP IT. We're all bored of hearing how many times you've landed somewhere or how many hours you've got.

CAT 3s? Half a dozen in the last 7 months. Seems like you've lead a pretty sheltered career.
