Everything else apart from the MON7509 operated by A320, G-ZBAB has got into Leeds this evening. The Met vis is greater than 1,500 meters but there is low cloud base mist/lite rain. Guess the fact that runway 14 is in use (CAT1 only) is not helping along with it been wet. You only have to remember what happened to L1011, G-BBAI....

Thanks for the information all. A case of "Be safe and be happy". I just hope the SLF appreciated the reasons.
