CVSFly,

No worries, If I can learn something new everyday it is a good day. I should have read what you wrote before assuming how things are done out-on the line. I am sure you and I could probably write a book on infractions that take place in the system everyday on the pilot and controller sides.

I don't think anyone has really touched on CAT IIIc approaches. As far as I know, the FAA has not approved them, so you won't find them in the U.S. They are done at some airports in Europe. It is an autoland procedure, and there are NO MINIMUMS. You can do a landing and never see the runway on CAT IIIc.
