Hey Flowman,
have you ever heard of NOTAMS? Or, actually, do you refer to a 2 years old news from BBC for your "safe" and "foggy" flights to Northern Italy?
Let me understand: would you really fly down to 75 mt. on a CAT 1 ILS?
The ENAV decision to degrade ILS procedures in many Italian airports from CAT 3 to CAT 1 was a simple way to make sure that airports were REALLY ready to face with low visibility conditions.
After a few weeks almost all ILS returned to normal CAT 3 operations including LIN (again, refer to NOTAMS...much more reliable than BBC...).
Need other updates?
