CAT IIIC even does automatic braking too.  So you end up stopped on the 
centerline.  Totally hands off.  Almost as good as a Tesla.

Correct, we were in a CR7, not Cat IIIc capable. I think those things are only 
rated to Cat II.

  In the case of SLC, you cannot blame the airport or the weather.  The airport 
was upgraded for the Olympics to CAT-IIIC which means you can land as long as 
you have good enough visibility to taxi.  It is full auto land capable.  But 
the aircraft and crew must also be capable and not all are.

  Actually, I almost had one of those a couple months ago, ceilings and fog in 
SLC just barely lifted above minimums enough to let us get in. Otherwise it 
would have been a DEN-PVU-SLC trip.
