I can only access the AIP charts and they look as if they have been done by a six-year old! The VOR26 is designated 'CAT A/B' but has minima for CAT C. NDB 26 is designated 'CAT A/B/C' but does not show any minima for CAT C (finger trouble?)

It appears that CAT A/B you circle on 08 from the VOR using a DA of 890'.
Cat C/D you cannot operate in at all!?? There do not appear to be any charts.

CAT A/B you circle on 26 from the VOR using a DA of 680' Cat C/D 890'
Using the NDB for some bizarre reason you use a DA of 680' CAT A/B and I would GUESS 840'for CAT C/D (Which I suspect is a chart error!)

Good luck! It would be useful to see what JEPP/AIG make of this.
