"I agree aussie027. It was not "normal circumstances"

Another "pilot" prepared to bust the MDA??????

There are NO CIRCUMSTANCES, in any civilian flying opsor non-tactical military operationsworth busting the MDA or DA for.

These are not the "old and bold" days of the past when "herioc" pilots died regularly testing the system to see what worked and what didn't.

The tested and proven system is in place and PROHIBITS flight below the MDA/DA, etc in IMC, at all times..... for good reason.

Some parts of the aviation system will need updating as time passes but the proof about the dangers involved with IFR flight below the MDA is proven.
