Chapter 1 – Introduction
1.1 General
Landing in low visibility is perhaps one of the most “exciting” ways to operate an aircraft but is certainly the most demanding. Such progress in civil aviation was made possible by huge improvements in aircraft automatic control systems over the last 40 years coupled with stringent requirements for airfield equipments and crew qualification. In Category III, pilots see the runway lights only few seconds (about 5 seconds) before touch down, therefore there is no margin for error. The basis for Category II/III operations, such as aircraft certification or airline operational demonstration, ensures a high level of safety. Moreover, approach success rate in actual in-line services is now nearly 100%.
1.2 Economic Aspects
CAT II / CAT III equipment represent a significant cost for an airline. However, it is the only way to keep in-line services during the whole year without any diversion. Weather conditions mainly depend on the airfield location, nevertheless actual CAT II or CAT III conditions may occur at any airfield during some periods of the year. Diversions are expensive for an airline: directly by passenger compensation costs and also by the resulting bad “image”. For these reasons, getting operational approval for CAT II and CAT III approaches have been considered as a necessary step in the evolution of a modern airline.
