below 500agl: go around mandatory IMC or VMC.
(IMC: instrument meteorological conditions ie. can't see the runway, VMC: visual meterological conditions ie. we can see the runway).
- if this is indeed correct and not yet another piece of misinformation, then as per post #183 - for rubik and all

- if your company INSIST on an automatic g/a regardless of conditions then:-

a) I apologise
b) I am staggered.
PERSONALLY if I had a runway in front and managed to control the a/c I would like the option to land if I had just peppered my engines with avians
