Narrative:

After shooting a missed approach to 24L at day, we were radar vectored to shoot the ILS to 6L. At that time, approach control informed us that the RVR was 2000 ft. 1800 ft was required. As we intercepted the approach and neared the OM, we requested the RVR which was reported at 1800 ft at the marker. I contacted the tower and informed them that we were at the marker inbound and requested the RVR. We were informed that they were down to 1600 ft. I informed the captain that the RVR was below published minimums for the approach. The captain acknowledged the RVR and continued the approach. I again informed the captain that the RVR was below minimums. The captain told me that we would continue the approach in hopes of the RVR increasing. At decision ht, we picked up the approach light system, continued the approach and landed. The RVR was now at 1200 ft.

Title: CPR LTT JET LANDS AT RVR LIMITS BELOW PUBLISHED ARPT WX MINIMUMS FOR LNDG.

Narrative: AFTER SHOOTING A MISSED APCH TO 24L AT DAY, WE WERE RADAR VECTORED TO SHOOT THE ILS TO 6L. AT THAT TIME, APCH CTL INFORMED US THAT THE RVR WAS 2000 FT. 1800 FT WAS REQUIRED. AS WE INTERCEPTED THE APCH AND NEARED THE OM, WE REQUESTED THE RVR WHICH WAS RPTED AT 1800 FT AT THE MARKER. I CONTACTED THE TWR AND INFORMED THEM THAT WE WERE AT THE MARKER INBOUND AND REQUESTED THE RVR. WE WERE INFORMED THAT THEY WERE DOWN TO 1600 FT. I INFORMED THE CAPT THAT THE RVR WAS BELOW PUBLISHED MINIMUMS FOR THE APCH. THE CAPT ACKNOWLEDGED THE RVR AND CONTINUED THE APCH. I AGAIN INFORMED THE CAPT THAT THE RVR WAS BELOW MINIMUMS. THE CAPT TOLD ME THAT WE WOULD CONTINUE THE APCH IN HOPES OF THE RVR INCREASING. AT DECISION HT, WE PICKED UP THE APCH LIGHT SYS, CONTINUED THE APCH AND LANDED. THE RVR WAS NOW AT 1200 FT.
