Anyway, why are you mixing 767/787 into a question about 757? The common typerating is no indication of common field performance.
There is only one instrument procedure at BGBW .....airports which are not suitable are not requested by my company.
I asked the question because as far as I know the 757 is the largest commercial aircraft ever to land at BGBW.....I am interested to know what procedures Air Greenland employed because for long periods of our transit it is often the only uncontained Fire option apart from the fairly cold sea. OK?
