Not that the current "Simple Approach Lighting" (to use its correct technical term) system is inadequate,the issue that I've highlighted impacts on the RVR minima for flying the approach. If the current approach lighting system is not CAP 168 compliant (for a Simple Approach Lighting system), due to all or part being obscured by vegetation, the RVR minima for the RNAV and other non-precision instrument approaches for runway 02 must be raised as it will consider that the runway has no approach lighting.
