Who is the operator? If the figures aren't available for a particular runway they may not have approval to operate CAT3 on to it so I would be cautious.
Thanks all for trying to explain it, it might help me get closer to understanding.
Of course I will ask later, but really would like to get to grips with it, if possible.
So assuming there indeed are CCI pages, can they show values below what is mentioned on the minima box. So below 50-200r in this case?
If not, question answered I guess. I use the ones in the CCI.
If they can show lower values and I if do use those lower values, what does the minima box tell me then? Assume the CCI shows 20-75r, what do I do with the mentioned 75-200r?
Reading the lido legends, it seems to come down to this part:
Which seems to suggest that for this specific LROP approach, there is no cat 3-75R published, there is only a cat 3-175r available, which is also slightly raised to 200r.
So even in my fail-operational Airbus I still need to use at least the minima (50-200r) shown in the box as there is no "better" (cat3-75r), unless the company limits (either in CCI or else) are even higher.
(I'm not naming the airline yet, as I'm slightly paranoid about giving too much personal info away, but it's a western Europe legacy.)
