Even if Brize could never achieve CatIII standard without spending lots of dosh, that the RAF does't have, surely it would still be useful to have the crews trained and the maintenance practises in place, so that the full capability of the aircraft could be used when necessary! The only currency we had was the requirement to do an LVP take off and autoland (with faults) in the sim every six months. The aircraft was required to do an autoland, I think every three months, MOC monitored this using the tech log where all autolands were recorded!
