A Very Peculiar Post!

Gosh.....this raises more Questions than it answers. What about single-engine turbo-props/jets.....what about a twinjet with an engine out, or a twin doing single-engine training. I submit that a single-engine piston a/c is the safest among all these as regards flight safety in the case you quote. I presume the instrument approach minima have been amended to the highest in Europe by the same process. Strong reservations about lack of appropriate markings.......does this comply with aerdrome licence regs? Now let me see........is that a PA46 with a piston engine or a turbo-prop? "xxx 01.....confirm you have a turbine engine....no a turbo-charger is not acceptable, can you accept an ILS with a 15 knot tailwind? No? How about an ILS followed by visual circling to R/W 08 to land on the bit at the end!!!!! Great post, haven't laughed so much for ages. Seriously though, what about a curved or offset approach as used at umpteen airfields I can think of?
