You are indeed correct. I was the Captain on today's EZY LPL-IOM. We departed anticipating an improvement in the weather, based on the forecast conditions. Having held at CAR for 30 minutes it was obvious that the vis was steady at 300 metres RVR (800 required) and not improving, so we returned to LPL.
Apologies to all on-board, we did the best we could. I hope that you all make it to the island ASAP.
