Read all the above carefully ,agree with most, but my main point is that this amendment doesn't cover Cat A aircraft. That includes all PPL IR aircraft, light twins, single engine turbo props and most helicopters. It also doesn't give QFE but that is no great loss.
Cat A as I understand, is a Vat of 91kts or less, please correct me if I'm wrong, the definition is from an old Pan Ops book!
Re the point on JAR or EU ops minima, there are differences and I wonder how that varies from CAA issued approach plates or Jeppesen?
As I posted on the instructors forum I have just bought a set of touring UK AERADs and I personally will have to swap these for Jepps on the basis that they are unusable for what all of the above had to do at one time, ie learn basic instrument flying for the IMC/IR
