I hate run on sentances that really never end and then you add some comments to the end and make another point and someone critizes your grammer and spelling but you really don't understand it so you make a counter point about their grammer but use there instead of thier and then they pick up on that grammer error and make another point about your grammer and then the whole point of the debate gets lost in a pissing in the snow competition about how boys can right there name in the snow when really they meant to say write thier name in the snow and then they correct thier to their and on and on it FUCKING goes...........................................

Is that what you juevenilles meant by a missed period - gramatically speaking of course. :rolleyes: OOPs I misspelled juevenille and misspelled......@#$! me!

You want to be taken seriously - grow up.

With just a couple simple instructions from a knowledgeable 744 driver, they can easily program the FMC for a picture perfect CAT III auto land. Using the heading bug for a long shallow intercept, and a few commands for flap and gear, I think it's doable. They get bonus points if they remember the reverse thrust after touchdown. But it wouldn't be required with auto brakes set at MAX. And voila........instant hero's!!!!!!

Cheers
