I don't have the exact bank angle that the metro wingtip will touch, but as you all should know, there shouldn't be much of any bank while over the runway in this situation. 5 degrees might be ok...but 10, 20, or even more ...forget it.
If this were a CAT I approach, which seems to be the case, then at a 200 DA, the runway must be in sight prior to being over it. The exception in the U.S. (I don't know about Europe) is that descent can be continued to as low as 100 feet if the approach lights are clearly visible at 200 feet and presumably used to correct any misalignment prior to the threshold.
