I easily could have landed from any of the approaches. Flying over the rabbit I clearly could see far enough of the runway to land. If you could see that far the Vis was better than 1/8 SM. Maybe the AWOS visibility sensor needs to be recalibrated. No, it looked like about 1/8 mile. Not sure why the FAA requires 1/2 mile if you can already see the runway. -Robert
