Whopity gave you chapter and verse from the source, beware interpretations.
Unfortunately they made a dangerous mistake when they said that the applicable minima was the system minima.

System minima for CAT 1 ILS is 200ft

Try using that minima when the published DH is 350ft.

The CAA have notified the minima in that case as;

IR holder 350ft DH

IMC holder recomended 550ft DH but absolute limit of 500ft DH

A PPL is perfectly at liberty (though perhaps best not advised) to fly in conditions requiring compliance with IFR in class F&G (uncontrolled) airspace
In class F and G by day the only circumstances which requires compliance with IFR is when flying in IMC since then VFR is not an option. Unless one holds a valid IR or IMC rating then flight in IMC is not an option in class F or G.

By night a PPL with night qualification is required when flying outside controlled airspace to comply with the IFR. However, the licence privileges still limit the pilot to VMC.

within the United Kingdom an instrument meteorological conditions rating (aeroplanes) rating entitles:
That seems like a clear territorial limitation ro me!


Most corner limits are advisory its only the ones with Red surrounds which are compulsory

If advisory foot hard down and see how much quicker than the advisory speed you can make the corner
Glad that you agree with what I said -

"It is recomended that you drive at (the advisory speed) or less but with an absolute maximum of (the speed limit)".

Easy to understand that or does it not say that the speed limit is the absolute maximum speed to drive at?

More importantly is that when a driving instructor teaches a new driver they will not be teaching the "keep the foot down hard method".
