I thought that the minima for landing fixed wing is 550M and 500M for helis.Therefore you do need LVP at Cat 1 ILS for inbounds below 600M(just) and for outbounds as Data Dad says.
What happens when the wx criteria require Safeguarding / LVP's but they aren't in place? It can take some time to get Safeguarding on.We advise the pilots,and they usually land anyway.
Therefore if we can't go into Safeguarding/LVP because of a generator problem,shouldn't that be the same criteria.Give them the info so that they decide their minima.Is there any difference between minima for a Safeguarded versus Non Safeguarded Cat 1 ILS?
The other day I went in the board said LVP on,Safeguarding not in place
Also I thought you needed Safeguarding with BKN at 300ft.
