They don’t. Autoland to the rescueThe photo above looks like a 787 so it’s 75meters visibility needed.
I think at Gatwick today the visibility went down to 200 meters
The aircraft would usually be doing an autoland once the visibility is below 500meters

Not sure where to start with this, but saw this flying very low over the new forest yesterday. It was heading between Southampton and Bournemouth by the looks of it, very low and very slow. Spotted it around 1145 near ashurst.
Any ideas why so low?
Assumed it was coming into land, curiousity led me to Google and found this -Any ideas why so low?

Four Dassault Falcons making pretty patterns in the sky over Iffracombe.
Anyone know what they are doing?
Think they’re the CinQ(??) jets - they must have massive air time as they leave Bournemouth (usually 2) every day - I saw this post at lunchtime and then ironically just saw this overhead whilst nr Poole at 15.50 - Anyone know what they are doing?

Clearly FlightRadar’s notifications are full of s**t! Sad though, especially for my brother in law who’ll now be looking for someone else to fly for.
You beat me to it this morning when I got the same notification about “20mins from last flight landing”!Sorry for you brother in law - I imagine the need for those flights remains, but will be under a different guise.

UR-09307 the mighty Antonov AN-22 is on the move from Kiev. Can’t get a pic to upload but the world’s biggest flying turboprop is in the air!
Total beast!
Eta - something really weird happened to the flight, appears to be making its way back to the airport -
And has now vanished :/
