Those visual approach slope indicators on the side of the runway make it kind of easy on approach. Two reds and two whites and keep it on that pattern. In the simulator the instuctor let me do a night landing with a long final and I managed to put it down on the ground, reverse throttle, hard on the pedals and I made it! I do not know how many heart attacks occured in the back of the plane..........but I made it!
What really blew me away on this thing was that once on the ground I steered the plane to the closest concourse and to an open gate where a figure comes out with yellow guidance flashlights and brings me to a full stop!! Steering with that right side rotating handle was very sensitive. The realism here is unbelievable.
If I indeed managed to land a Boeing 777 several times without assistance then YES, I think its possible one can be talked through it.
