There are a couple of other subtle factors with Florence.
For local reasons, the reported wind (limited to 10kt tail with the last operator I flew there with) and the GNX display often varied by 10kts or more. I am reliably informed that this disparity is well noted by seasoned operators into FLR.

The other interesting one is the balked landing case on 05 which has DAYLIGHT VISUAL ONLY rather prominently displayed. Having watched a car using the runway a shortcut one fine Summer's evening, one must wonder how night ops are permitted.
