DH and RVR are typical for CAT II/III, definitely not SA approaches. The airport's PATC and AOC charts indicate that these are also rather normal approach profiles. Any ideas why on rather normal, big national airport they want special auth for simple CATII/CATIII approach?
Did any of you flying there have to go through special training to do CAT II/CATIII approaches there?
I think this simply means that the crew needs to be trained and aircraft equipped and certified for LVO operations.
