Certainly the arming floats bit. But I'm not so sure about the onshore destination sea state limit. After all, there is no sea state at a land destination. And which airports and runways are you going to include and exclude? For example, Aberdeen presumably not, Scatsta maybe, Sumburgh yes on the instrument runways. Wick probably not etc. No, I don't think they mean to include onshore destinations in the sea state rule, but it needs to be clarified!
