Some clarity required on Decision Altitudes
Chaps/Chapesses,
What is your take on DAs
I have been trained to wait until DA(+Pressure Error Correction) before looking up and following the routine of "DA, nothing seen, going around"
Example DA 560ft PE of 20ft, DA to look up @ 580ft...
So it goes like this "600ft, 590ft, 580ft, DA, looking up, nothing seen, going around"
In the time it takes to perform that, you may drop 40ft, so down to 540ft say before the AC levels and the go around comes about.
With the above situation would you normally fail your precision approach on an IRT, as that situation resulted in me failing my precision approach on my IRT, I'm a bit frustrated as that was how we were taught to do it!
Any views reccomendations for my resit appreciated.
