Touchdown! Greaser!
Yesterday I was flying into an airport in which the ceiling continued to lower until at approach time, it was at LPV minimums for ceiling (vis was 7).
That's cool I thought; might make it in.
Passing the IAF, had LPV illuminated then soon after got a warning about the approach being downgraded to LNAV which meant higher ceiling minimums and yes, a missed in actual.
I've been looking around to find out what can cause this downgrade to occur and have found nothing.
Nothing in AIM, using their search tool.
The unit displayed "Raim Available" prior to commencing approach.
There is no notam.
I have done this approach many times before using LPV all the way down.
Hoping it's not our equipment.
