Rode thru my first coupled landing last week at SFO.
737-800, Wx 100 ft & 1/8 mile forecast in Bay Area Fog. I never saw ground before we touched down. Pilot said he only touched controls after rolling down R/W and he went into reverse thrust with engines. Touch down was smoother than VFR Pilot landing back at IAH on return leg. What was that cartoon titled ??? "Born 70 Years Too Soon" ![]() Big John |

Even nosewheel steering would have been guided by the AP Touch down was smoother than VFR Pilot landing back at IAH on return leg. usually is. The consistencey is astonishing, really. What was that cartoon titled ??? "Born 70 Years Too Soon" Or too late. Think the pilot could have handled an American Eaglet? Bertie |
