Maybe I should ask the question differently. The weather is 200 overcast. CAT 1 approaches are still being used. Perhaps we are tight on fuel and won't have enough fuel for a second approach. We want to make sure we get in.

Is it likely that ATC will oblidge if we ask for low visibility procedures to be implemented for our particular landing if we want to make sure to get in. Maybe it depends on traffic and runway layouts, etc. Maybe it disallows other aircraft or slows down arrival numbers per hour. Has anyone requested this when the weather is at or near CAT 1 minima?
