Static, you may be interested to know...that for an FAA type rating, the applicant must hand-fly a basic ILS approach to a 100 foot DA, followed by either a landing or go-around, all engines operating. Airlines train for this maneuver with an engine out as well.. .These basic skills must be demonstrated...or no rating. Same for recurrent. If the flight director is not used, slightly higher minimums apply.. .And yes...you are quite correct...LVP not necessary for landings with CAT I minimums.. .And...1400m RVR...rather good weather actually.... <img src="rolleyes.gif" border="0">
