As we waited at ZRH, every half-hour our Flight Engineer was monitoring CDG’s observed weather on the radio. However, when we reached Paris there was a large number of aircraft waiting to land. As the Captain, Phil was evaluating his decision, and realised that he had been pressured into leaving Zurich early. The next call was “minimums”, before which point Captain Phil had to announce “Runway lights in sight”, or “No contact”. If the camera can’t see the aircraft when it passes overhead, then it proves that the aircraft was still in cloud.
