I was in YUL last week and I can't remember if it was the outbound YYZ-YUL on a 767-300 or the return YUL-YYZ on a 767-200 but one of them the pilot specifically said they used the Autoland.

Oh, just remembered, it was the YYZ-YUL because the pilot (First Officer actually) was talking about the 100th anniversary of flight and he was going on about how wonderful the 767-300 was. Funny enough, sitting next to me was a A319/320/321 Captain (he was going over some manuals) and he just laughed. Anyway, when we landed the FO went on to say that they used the Autoland of this fine aircraft (never mind the fact the flight was 2 hours late because we had to wait for the inbound flight crew!)
