So assuming that Manx 2 have/had more than one crew for the Metro , why has no one posted details of the aircraft and crews LVP capability which, if less than Cat 1 must be stated in the ops manuals and would also give details of training required to operate to minima below Cat 1.
Does the abscence of such information on this forum simply mean , as i fear it does, that the Metro EC-ITP was a Cat 1 aircraft.
In addition , SNN was below Cat 1 as a diversion airport.
The computer generated PLOG and loadsheeet copy left in Belfast would clearly tell which was the nominated alternate and whather the plane had sufficient fuel to return to the departure point.
The R/T transcripts will surely answer a great deal.
Very sad that press-on-itis, if this is to be the case still exists on a commercial operation.
