The Flight Safety Foundation has done a lot of work on CFIT accidents. The risk of a CFIT in a non-precision approach is five times higher than in a precision approach.

It should not be a problem for properly trained flight crew to fly a non-precision approach into the Comores during day-time.
Me silly.
It is a no problem or it is a five time more risky to fly a non precision approach?
Why we should debate about a properly trained crew? I do expect that all the crews are properly trained.
