I’ve gotten into both CDG and FRA on CATIII approaches. In Paris it used


to be required to “see to land” at 50ft on a CATIII, that went away a few yrs ago. I usually see something by 50ft. I flew a CATIII into Delhi last Jan and didn’t see ANYTHING until about 14ft, even using my HUD/EFVS. Taxiing is the worst part of doing CATIIIs.

This picture, taken by someone on my jumpseat (screencap from a video), going into Dubai a couple years ago is just after passing 50ft. 😎👍🏻
