Ryanair and Cork
Bearcat ,
Ryanair crews and aircraft are CAT2 rated . Their diversion rate is almost negligble as a result. The Cork RVR rarely stays below CAT 2 for very long as poor visibility is caused by low cloudblowing through rather than fog. So if an aircraft has sufficient fuel then there's no problem getting in.
Operating to Cork with pilots and/or aircraft that are not CAT2 inevitably leads to a higher diversion rate ,cancellations and additional expense which is no longer acceptable in the low cost environment of today.
Two major carriers operating to Cork for the last 4 years seldom or never carry out CAT2 approaches and have a far worse diversion rate as a result.
I'm simply paying Ryanair a compliment for their common sense.
