blue pilot , you've got in 1. The problem is that nothing other than the 737s can use the Cat 3 on 32. Ryanair only operate 737s Jet2 use 757 and may soon use 767s ex LBA. The fact that LBA is the highest airport in the UK means it is also one of the poorest for weather. All I was saying is Jet2 will suffer in Cat3 conditions compared to its new rival at LBA because of this. PIA have recently done some Cat2 approaches into LBA and have been lucky over the winter with their A310s. It's about time the problem was resolved by the airport but it seems they'd rather put money into a new terminal upgrade with lots more shops. I guess thats commercial sense but if you end up loosing all the biggest ac on bad weather days then it's not just the shops that suffer! I'd just like Jet2 to be able to compete on an equal footing but the airport don't seem to attach any priority to this unlike MAN/LTN!
