I would be totally blown away if the new BNE runway was commissioned as a Cat 3B capable piece of infrastructure. I have already been told that pilot safety and technical members had to lobby BAC to have stop bars installed! Like everything else in this country, I'd expect it to be half arsed but massively overpriced. Also, standby for the years of orange cones around all this new equipment saying for some reason it can't be used due to safety/security concerns (think ADL airport ramp to the terminal), and years of NOTAMS while new concrete is dug up to install the required lights/equipment etc expected of a 1st world country.
