I was also puzzled watching that until I read a forum post at NiAviation.
Of course, the more modern aircraft had little issues with 250m vis.
Do you use NiAviation? Registration seems broken & I missed the updates about site migration in 2023 (I don’t often need to log-in).

Some people* would like to see the government build a new fast express line between Leeds and Manchester. I'd like to see the chad councils of Manchester, Oldham, Kirklees and Leeds build a 40 mile light rail route between those cities extracting 90% of the land value uplift along the way.

Aircraft has at least 2 GNSS receivers: the data is distrib’d around avionics, time & pos’n. GNSS = D in ADS-B (via xponder). FMS uses GNSS as 1 of its pos’n inputs but terrestrial radio aids will be totally adequate if GNSS is absent (while aircraft ‘autonomous’ truth for pos is inertial/ADIRS)
