What a load of rubbish. I have worked for a big carrier (Big Airways)in the UK and both the Captain and First Officer could carry out CAT 1 autolands at ANY airport unless prohibited by flight crew notice, they did not have to be CAT II/III equiped. There were only a few that we couldn't do it at, from memory one end at Aberdeen, Jersey etc...

Now working in Oz and NZ we can also carry out CAT 1 autolands albeit a Captain only approach (for some reason) a numerous airports that aren't CAT II approved such as Christchurch, Brisbane, Sydney, Hobart etc....
Yup, all correct.
My, there is a lot of drivel being spouted by some!
