250 below FL100 is both the law and sensible yet I hear lots of pilots from many operators ignoring it on a regular basis. Why? Is it get-home-itis or what? Better 5 mins late in this life etc!
However the thread brings up many other issues not necessarily related. How can an authority permit IFR flight in uncontrolled airspace?
Or, how can you have an instrument procedure eg ILS to both runways at PIK, established that takes you outside CAS? It's time the CAA woke up to the dangers of this and protected the users, all of them, in this airspace. But, of course, the military wouldnt allow PIK to increase the CAS to protect such approaches - Isn't that so boys!
