Hey guys. Thanks a lot for the responses, makes things clearer.
Got another ques.

"Visual Reference

No pilot may continue a precision approach CAT 1 below the DH unless the reported visibility is equal or greater than 800m; or a RVR is given and at least one of the following visual references for the intended runway is distinctly visible to, and identifiable by the pilot:

– elements of the approach lighting system;
– the threshold, or its markings, lights or identification lights;
– the visual glide slope indicator(s);
– the touchdown zone or zone markings or zone lights;
– the runway edge lights."

Ques I have is that if I have an RVR given, I match that to what I have on my jeppeson plate, and if I have what I require, I should be okay.
Now usually on the ATIS I hear visibility, if they've said I have 800M, according to the above, I should be okay. Now if I have 700 m, can I convert to RVR?

Also. What happens when my RVR is okay, but ceiling is not?



Sorry but this is all new and confusing to me
