TOM

I believe that the TOM made the decision to divert whilst over the Irish Sea, the aircraft didn't even try an approach. At the time RVRs were fluctuating at around the 700m level which would have certainly made a Cat1 approach legal on either end. The PIA landed 14.

Hopefully, we will one day see CatII on 14. Sort out the 32 RESA and a more usable CatIII might be a prospect.
