It was an issue in the 737-800, which was purely category C in our operations although approach speeds were over 140 kts in normal operation already. We never had to adjust minima, it was treated still as category C in non-normal situations, especially stuck slats/flaps which leads to much higher speeds, OEI was flown at flaps 30 since we had the fail operational autopilot which is approved for that.

The A321, however, is always category D in the company i fly for.
