Hmm.. thanks for the replies.
It is even possible that one operator deems one airfield cat c while another categorizes it as cat b and both operate the same equipment.
I don't get how that could happen, what would be the deciding factor, frequency of operation into the airfield ?
I'm looking for the planning process here, say your airline picks a new destination to fly to, OK, if it says in the AIP entry for that airfield that special aircrew training/state approval is required, (for whatever reason) then I guess CAT C is a given. But if it doesn't, does the Chief Pilot just take a look at the approaches and say 'hmm that looks a bit tricky' and classify it accordingly or do other Ops people have a guide on how to classify.
I am aware that the following are deemed CAT C in Europe by some operators, are there any others for say a B737 or A320 operator ?
LFLB
LOWI
LOWS
LPMA
Would a narrow width runway be a CAT C or B, or neither ?
