We understand each other quite well. Yet there is no such thing as "approach ban" in JAR OPS 1.405. The OM/equivalent position requirement is a operator's procedure (a regulation-forced one). Let's keep the term "approach ban" for moments when ATC will refuse to issue an approach clearance, which is a UK thing. Savvy?
