No, I was pointing out that fog is a dangerous thing, I don't believe this was a runway collision, but taking off in less than 1/8 vis is not good. And I doubt that these planes were equipped with CAT III or even CAT II systems.

I cannot find that old story of the skyjacked jetliner that Fruitcake of Islamic terrorists attempted to force the pilots to crash into the Eiffel Tower.
Aircraft eventually landed.
Skyjackers were not trained to fly back then.
Perhaps some of you could pull it up and post it here on FR.
It will be interesting to hear what France says about the USA telling them to cancel flights to America now.
