Yes, I would be, but never experienced it apart from in the sim. There is no absolute guarantee (unless YOU have one) that the system will perform flawlessly.

I think Dani wanted good vis so he could see if any aeroplane was in the protected area...like 146s.
a) I would 'assume' potential problems with no LVP protection
b) I would probably have picked up the take-off clearance of the preceding and quite probably have seen it during its departure
c) I would have 'noted' the presence of a/c at the Cat I hold.

Is this not just standard airmanship?
