If CATIII’s are getting in and my jet is capable, I’m strongly considering emergency authority to land vs divert to non customs airport if that’s the only option and ASAPing it.
I don’t know the whole story though.
Right? Especially with an autoland..Originally Posted by marcal
And this is why “high mins” is so ridiculous. Here we have a new Captain that could have gotten in just fine, and bc they’re on high mins are now forced into a situation that is taxing on an experienced CA let alone a brand new one. Both times I’ve been on high mins I had to use 5549 to do a CAT II to an auto land. Each time I considered and briefed using Emergency Authority to do a CAT III to an auto land if warranted(one time I had an ALT and one time I did not bc of unforecast weather).If CATIII’s are getting in and my jet is capable, I’m strongly considering emergency authority to land vs divert to non customs airport if that’s the only option and ASAPing it.
