Did some testing at KSFO in CAT III weather with the IDG-A33X. Happy with the outcome!

Kind Regards,
Josh

This is the most boring film i ever saw, with just a grey windscreen. But boring is good in this case. Then the system worked well :-)

I wonder if you made it taxiing to the gate in this fog.

Ow, there is just one thing i noticed. It seemed like the plane called you a retard after touchdown.

Kind regards, Vincent

LOL

Yes, that was the goal, to demonstrate the technology. It's boring because it's a demo.

Yes! It will keep the children of magenta happy.

Yes, in autolands, retard calls at 10, and THR IDLE will idle the thrust at 20ft. In manual, there is no THR IDLE, and the retard call is at 20ft.

Kind Regards,
Josh
