Can a passenger plane land own its own?

Garmin has the first fully automated emergency self-landing on the market: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;watch?v=IcVuubU4BTU" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;watch?v=IcVuubU4BTU</a><p>It&#x27;s only available on a few aircraft and only certified for emergency use. The biggest problem here is not so much the landing as the air traffic control, as the autolanding aircraft is unable to understand and follow directions and so control basically has to treat it as if it is transmitting in the blind. Surprisingly, only a GPS approach is required, not ILS.

I experienced and autolanding in Brussels once, due to fog. The crew seemed pretty nervous, and came around double checking we were all buckled up and enforced the no-devices in use while landing policy strictly. The landing itself was unremarkable, except that we had no visual clues at all from the ground approaching out of the window. The whole preparation showed me though how everyone on the plane thinks the autolanding deserves actually way more attention and preparation than a usual manual landing.

Carrier landings are often heavily automated in planes like the f-18.<p>I worked with someone who had been the navigator in a growler, and he complained that they would always get lower scores for their landings while the f-18 pilots would auto land and get full marks
