Yes 1Time is CAT II rated, I've sat in the jumpseat where they performed a actual CAT II into Cape Town with autoland.

Let us pray that...

1 Time is Cat 11 rated.
glorybusdriver had the necessary etc & so forth, to sit in the jump seat.

Standby perhaps for a most deafening silence?

Is this speculation or fact, I am surprised a fuel retailer would supply an airline with that much credit?

Cat 2/3 Certification

Yes, 1TIME is CAT2 rated.

Crews perform the required initial training as per SACAA regs and recurrency is done Bi-Anually.

We also keep record of every Cat2 Simmulated/Actual for recency requirements.

About the Fuel....I understand....invoicing about 20 days in arrears.

Whats the urgent need to find out about Cat2 compliancy?
p.s. MD80 does a nice Auto-Land too!

Cheers,

Deerated

No they are not behind on the fuel bill.

Go look at this link :

1time holdings - SENS

1Time is a listed company and as such is obliged to warn shareholders of potential profitability problems. In fact, if you go ahead and read the link, you will see that round about the time all the bleating started on this forum, 1Time issued a cautionary stating that they were acquiring another company, hardly indicative of a company in the pooh.

There was a little snippet way back at the beginning of all this furor to the effect that someone had sat in a cockpit and watched a Cat 11 approach into Capetown with an autoland. Someone please refresh the tired brain but don't you need a Cat 111 rating for an autoland from a Cat 11 approach?

Just making sure the equipment was servicable...I guess...VFR i don't see why not.

Auto Coupled to below DH.....Quote....Thus airworthiness requirements may, through minimum engagement height for the Automatic Flight Control system, affect the DH to be applied, 300 meters RVR may be used for a Category D a/c conducting an AUTO LAND...Unquote.....

Surely not VFR? The original jumpseat rider reported that the approach in question had been in actual Cat 11 conditions.
Open to correction of course, as always, but an RVR of 300mtrs places the approach limitations into the realm of a Cat 111A operation? The RVR limit for a Cat 11 operation is 370mtrs? So then, if one interpolates the paragraph relating to auto coupled below DH, would it be true to say that a Cat 11 rated crew can make an approach in a Category D aircraft in Cat 111 conditions provided that the approach is coupled, that an auto land is planned and that the RVR is not less than 300mtrs?
