Rudderat your wasting your time.

Spandex is simply stuck on transmit and letting the detail of his manuals rule over sound airmanship .

I'll give it one more go.

Spandex for 125m takeoff (or 150m Cat D) when you enter a Cat2/3 runway you will need to see 6 lights or 3 sets of touch down lights ! Either gives you the 90 m you need. Once you have that your telling us you will taxi down a perfectly good runway past the larger and far more easier to see sets of touchdown lights to finally get to your all important 15m centre line lights ? That's ridiculous.

There are airports everywhere that have Cat/2/3 holding points leading onto displaced thresholds. For many that is your only way to enter the runway so how on earth would you then take into account the performance figures for your little trip down the runway ?
