One of the many issues that we face is the FDAP and the consequences of infringing any of the rules . I understand why management imposed them ,but sadly in doing so they have removed common sense and airmanship from the flightdeck . You can make a perfectly safe approach and landing but break one of the approach rules . These rules box you In with regard to what you can and cannot do . Understandably the guys are not going to risk pinging an FDAP during an approach especially in SFO is one of the easiest places to ping an FDAP event .its also a nightmare of an airport if you don’t operate in there regularity . Personally I will never accept a visual in the USA any more because as Bleve stated you never know which aircraft ATC are referring to
