Garmin autoland was deployed for the first time in an emergency, safely landing Beech B200 Super King Air N479BR in Denver.

Details a bit thin, but apparently it worked - good to see

Its great that the aircraft landed safely. 

As with all technological advancement, it seems that the era of the human pilot becoming redundant, is well and truly upon us.😈

And now the real story is coming to light, there was no pilot incapacitation at all. It was all BS.

Sounds like the Kingair version of Trevor Jacob parachuting from a perfectly good airplane.

All very strange.
