Where is the difference between an ATIS system and the RWY in use given at first contact by the ATC unit ?
The difference lays in the fact that in CAG they never give you the WX nor the RWY nor the expected procedure unless you ask for it when already in the final phases of your flight...and when they do then they change the arrival procedure at least 2 times.

Some companies conduct their line checks on flights to CAG to see how their pilots cope with "unfavourable" environments....makes you wonder....
