Talking

I had my fingers crossed, NUR NUR NUR NUR NUR!

Positive Climb:

Yes I know it was a lot more complicated; 6AM, long flight, difficult approach etc. I was merely challenging your claim that BA sops considerably reduce cfits.

Magnus:

Have experienced that selfsame thing but I had to go-around the first time. Fair enough, but firstly, how often does this actually happen? and secondly, to drop 20-30' on a precision approach below DA is not life threatening stuff. It just seems to me like using a sledgehammer to crack a nut.

Anyway, it's inevitable for me so I will come to terms with it, just like any change in this industry. The only reason I resurrected this thread was to divine just how much of my beloved raw data flying I was going to have to do without, and it seems not too much.
