Regular aircraft equipped for IFR can't safely land with zero forward visibility. The pilot has to be able to see the runway for the final touchdown and roll out. Only a few aircraft and airports are able to do Category IIIC precision landings.

- psunavy03 1y agoIn an emergency you do whatever you have to in order to preserve safety and lives. No idea if the procedure here would be use a backup camera, try to land on ILS, or eject/bail out (if equipped). Presumably they've thought of that and it's in the "emergency procedures" section of the flight manual.
