With respect, I put the relevant sentence into my own words but have not changed any figures. I was merely quoting the figures given by the MOD response to the MOKG I quoted. Herewith:-
"The Board members concluded that the prevailing weather conditions were such as to demand flight in accordance with Instrument Flight Rules (IFR) in the vicinity of the Mull of Kintyre. The prescribed minima for flying visually, VFR, are horizontal visibility of 1 km beneath a cloud base of at least 250 feet, if flying below 140 knots; and a visibility of greater than 5kms, 500ft minimum cloud base, and 1500 metres horizontally from cloud, if above this speed.
I don't know what I have misinterpreted. The case I did quote where I could not remember the details, anno domini again, I asked you to confirm that I was correct.
