gwh... no names, no pack-drill, but at a certain unit in the UK we used to routinely ask pilots if they were visual with the surface, and then would say "maintain your own terrain clearance, descend to.... ft"? We could probably get away with it because we were working in Class G (it might have even been before those classifications were introduced?)... but it helped get pilots in when weather was marginal IMC
