North South... my point is that when marshalling an aircraft for a PAR, Mil regulations require that an IFR service continues to the runway, and once past the FAF, on PAR the controller is having to pass vectors... in otherwords (s)he is vectoring the aircraft below RVC levels, which we are told we cannot do?
I fully agree that PAR... and for that matter ANY instrument approach procedure provides terrain clearance, (and would add that terrain clearance under RAS is clearly defined as a pilot's responsibility)... I cannot see why regulations do not say something like, "Vectors will not be provided below RVC unless established on an approved approach or departure procedure ... surely that would cover the situation?
