When the weather was below 4000 RVR the captain would fly the approach with the FO calling out the Altitudes and DH. The 200s had the altimeters set to be off by 100 feet. On a CAT 1 app, the DH was 100 AGL. ( due to the FO calling DH off his alt.) How the FAA Ever allowed that is beyond me.
Some would say pizza and bribes
