IMHO..At the end of a long duty... night and dawn landing accidents generally occur.
I feel Captains should never be allowed to forget that if they have autoland available, and there is a choice of autoland runway available that is within autoland limits, they should not be in such a hurry or too rushed or proud to use autoland.
Please correct me if I am wrong but I donot believe anyone has yet died during a crash on an actual or practice autoland.
