Hi there,can anyone at Manch ATC shed light on why 06L became prefered runway during LVP's, RVRs down to 300m.The wind was Nw'ly 3kts or so so no real wind factor.The reason I ask is that CATII approaches onto 06L exclude Cat C and D aircraft,thus sending us into the hold at Mirsi for 45mins.I personally couldn't work out why 24R wasn't used, allowing us all the option of a CATII approach.I understand that some WIP was taking palce at the 24R end,but doesn't that usually stop in LVP conditions.
Not a moan,just curious
