Night deps.-no SID`s, no radar.
A-3TWENTY.
You are making my blood run cold!
The point at which a SID begins can be several hundred feet below the point at which the missed approach begins.
With your procedure you have absolutely no guarantee of terrain clearance.
The original question is vitally important and absolutely must be covered
in SOP`s.
Fly over the lights!!!??? How about an engine failure? How about lights leading to a tunnel?
The correct procedure must be type and airport related but in the absence of light, radar, SID or reliable ATC perhaps the correct procedure is to stay on the ground.
