Don't think there is one out there.  But in a normal autoland equipped aircraft you would normally just have to put it on approach hold, and at the appropriate time, it will flare automatically

Just wondering...

Why would you want the plane to land itself? How can you get better as a pilot if you're not doing any work. It's not very hard to disengage the AP and add a little back pressure...just my opinion... ::)

The amendment to the old premise, "They shall go up but they shall come down..." is: '...not necessarily in one piece!'
I'd rarely finish a mission in earnest without attempting a landing, even a forced landing whereby I must end the mission by default.

I supose a simplistic Auto land would be some code that is atached to a button on the pannel that turns you AC into AI and it follows the AI flight path to landing, including AI go around if necsesary. Might be a cool option Dudes, would let folks not as able to fly to the location and turn on the first officer landing switch ? then sit back as a check captain and enjoy the senery.  ;D
