CAT III and turboprops
Hi there,
I just surfed the web, but couldn't come up with useful information. Please help me out on this one.
To my knowledge turboprops and most bizjets are not capable of performing cat III approaches. Be it for the lack of autothrottle or autopilot, etc.
I'm thinking of Dash 8, ATR, Citation, Learjets, Kingair, ...
Every now and then one of those shows up for an cat III approach, which makes me wonder. Are there systems or upgrades on the avionics, which can enable aircraft named above of performing cat iii approaches.
If yes, then it would surely be a financial matter. Would it be feasable for airline operators only, or could private an biz a/c operators afford such a step as well.
Thanks for your help,
FR
