Whilst I have a degree of agreement with Adola69 and his fears of a reduced landing rate in LVP conditions, I would add the following comment:

How often is 05L in use during LVPs? Normal met conditions for CAT111 operations tend to lead to a very low surface wind and more often than not with a westerly drift. So, whilst I agree with the basic concern, the chances of the delays building too much are low (says he with hand in mouth as we will probalby find 05L LVP operation tonight!!).

The next question then for Roverman is when can we expect to see 05R being upgraded to CAT111 status?
