[Our local instructions say that ADC is to determine whether the prevailing WX conditions would normally allow the affected procedures to be used but I guess that if it is anything much less than VMC, pilots would need cloud and visibility information before commencing an approach.
Your thoughts please.[/QUOTE]
I think that visibility is only an issue when the RVR is below minima.As for cloud then there is no way to state it,so I guess it's not available.How we work out how to put on Safeguarding then not sure.If the cloud is down on the reservoir on the hill,then put it on?
Computers don't fail do they.I've got a Met Obs ticket from another country,but can't use it here.
