Dear Kirk

You seem to have missed the part about this being a go around/ balked landing below minima (regardless of which ones). You are in fact closer to the DER than to the MAP. Also- the fact that you are slightly higher and faster than you normally would be at DER following would improve you chances of making the minimum gradient there is no shame in making a better gradient?
May I suggest that you read BLIPs post again.

SOPs, as per my previous statement, all the pilots I discussed this with were trained to the same SOPs. There was however (at that time) no specific reference to G/A below minima with an engine out.

Ken- you frighten me. Yes I have had it in the SIM. What do you know about my stick&rudder abilities anyway? (I haven't flown with you, have I? )
