The most critical operation for an aircraft to perform is landing. Even in bad weather, more specifically poor visibility, landing becomes virtually impossible of instrument guidance to aid the pilot. The more extreme case occurs when the visibility is near zero and the pilot cannot land the plane manually. This situation requires an automatic landing or precision approach to be performed by the aircraft flight control system in conjunction with a landing/guidance system. This type of guidance has been provided by the integration of the Global Positioning System (GPS) and Inertial Navigation System (INS).
