May I suggest you need to reconsider your attitude to the inconvenience of raising the minima to improve the safety of the MApp flight path - the professional decision is accept that there are times when the weather precludes you from going to certain places. Should you decide otherwise, then you become the person who may be required to defend your acceptance of the risk.

Perhaps I did not explain myself very clearly. These are not my attitudes – these are published special approaches with OEI procedures practiced by airlines in the US. I was simply asking if there was an option under JAROPS for an air carrier to create a OEI procedure for an approach when the higher than normal miss gradient cannot be made.
I’m not suggesting that a pilot make up their own OEI procedure or that an airline operate illegally. Once again – this has nothing to do with my attitude. I’m talking about legalities and procedures not feelings and wags at performance.
