To those who suggest we do more visual approaches, Im guessing you don't fly long haul. After being in an aircraft for 12-14 hours, awake for up to 24 hours total minus some poor rest onboard, the last thing I want to see is a visual approach. The closest to a visual is disconnecting the autopilot around 500' to then follow the PAPI. When you're knackered I want to see the simplest approach possible, with the most automation possible.
