Moggiee:
"As for cloudbase, the acceptable minimum on an ILS approach is 0'. "

Only for CAT III ILS approaches. CAT II approaches have a 100' cloud base minimum, and CAT I minimum is 200'.
I'm with Moggiee, in that Approach bans only apply to RVRs. You can start/continue a CAT1 ILS with any cloudbase. At DH you are required to have certain visual references, not be "below cloud" (which is of undefined opacity).

Nigel on draft. It was a question
Well, the 1st part yes.... the second part I would suggest not
Did the RVR get up to CAT 1 minimums or didn't it?
Sure don't look like it.
which sounds quite an assertion at 2 deceased colleagues
