Unhappy

A friend of mine was landing just before them. The WX was RVR24: 250m and they had contact with the RWY at the 50' minimums for the Saab 2000. According him the last transmissions were:

LG9642: We are established on ILS 24
ATC: Ok you're n°2 continue APP, latest RVR 250m.
LG9642: We need 300m for LDG...

About 1 minute later:

ATC: LG9642, you're clear to land 24.

That was not aknowledged by LG 9642 and afterwards the TWR call them several times without succes and shortly after the airport was closed...

My condolences to all concerned.

Question; are the F-50 and Luxair crew cat 3 approved?
