You've probably already done it. Most modern airliners are
equiped for a Category-IIIa approach and landing and many
airports are now able to handle that. The autopilot lands
the airplane in essentially zero-zero conditions. The
primary requirement is enough visibility for the pilots to
handle the roll out and taxi after the landing.
