Nick,
I understand your concerns about the adoption of Cat A requirements by ICAO and JAA. My position was....and is....the claim was to be operatiing under Cat A when in reality the decision to withhold the proper reject areas in actuality made the operation non-Cat A. The point being....call it what it really is...non Cat A with all that means.
With the JAA/ICAO crisis coming....maybe the old Wessex with twin Gnomes will become in vogue again!
