The development of all-weather landing is reviewed, particularly with regard to automatic control aspects. Flare-out schemes are described as well as experience with various systems. Problems of cross wind and techniques for eliminating their effects are included, along the ¿weather cock¿ technique. Crab-angle elimination and castering cross-wind landing gear methods are touched upon.
