I didnt mean to suggest 300ft is CATII, RWY22 is not CATII.
plate 10-1P1 (general) Schiphol. LVP Low visibility proc are in force with cloudbase = to or less than 300FT. Phases A & B LVP dictate a CATII landing which if you look at the plates for Schiphol, RWY22 is not certified for CATII landings which I believe is due to the absence of certain lighting. (Centre line). You will not find CATII plate for rwy22.
Yes wind is within limits - a 4 knot tailwind is within limits but if you had a choice of good runways to use and better judging by the wind, why would airport use 22.
