Hello,

I'd really appreciate if anyone could give a view on the chances of my flight TLS to Munich with DLH (probably on a CRJ ) departing on time given the following taf......

TAF LFBO 201700Z 210024 VRB02KT 0500 FG VV///
TEMPO 0010 0200 FG
BECMG 1012 5000 FEW010
BECMG 1518 3000 BR
TEMPO 1824 0400 FG VV///=

Much appreciated,

keeders.

Should be ok. I don't work for that airline but we can use a minimum visibility/rvr of 125m for take off, assuming the crew are Low Vis trained. I would have thought the CRJ crew would be trained thus.

Of course that assumes the aeroplane gets in tonight.

keeders - too many unknowns/variables to get an answer.

What time is 'on-time'?
Is the a/c an inbound/outbound or is it LFBO resident?
If i/o, are the a/c and crew Cat3 capable?
If i/o, will it be delayed inbound by weather?

As Chesty says, there should be no problems for take-off as long as the crew are bad wx qualified and the aerodrome lighting etc is serviceable.

I think this will do better elsewhere.
