I am willing to talk you through it. We've done the same as
oceancrosser, without CCIs. No sweat.
After explaining to pilots and making them understand how to determine the minima of the day, where to find the numbers in the books and how to apply them to what's printed in LIDO. So I insist you not being trained in the "where do I find the minima" expertise is relevant a.t.m.
Happy to answer the question from #23 (which is straightforward as much as the answer is useless to you):
- in 2009 I would take RVR 200 + RA 50'
- in 2014 I would take RVR 200 + RA 50' (different reason, kind of)
- in 2019 I would take RVR 300 + RA 100'
- in 2024 I would take RVR 550 + DH 200' above TDZE
All the same airplane, well AFM. My initial LVP qualification was directly from Airbus to C3-operational standard + no DH, pre-dating the examples above.
There's nothing wrong with your thinking in the first post, moreover your own #17 pretty much has all the answers. Please ask....
