Don't get confuse guys ......... Normally, for Cat 1 ILS, min viz is 800 m or RVR 550m...... :)

Viz and RVR are 2 different animals ....... if you are IFR rated, then you should know the different ...... ;)

Whether it is produced by Jepp, LIDO, RAAF or AERAD is immaterial ....... all are legal docs, depending which producer you company subscribed to (read: BUDGET) ...... :(

Right.. that's why I was wondering how come the Vis is 550m instead of 800m? it should have been the same.. anyway, thanks for clearing that up Dre.

Cheers..
