[QUOTE]Yes but in Pisa not flying the missed approach procedure at night is not really an option. The great big mountains in front of you on go around off 04r see to that. I fly in to Pisa once a month or so and for the life of me can't remember the terrain to the south/QUOTE]

Haven't flown into Pisa for a while (fortunately!) - but I recall the engine out SID off 04 incorporate an early turn to the left - there's a rather large expanse of water off to the west . . . just food for thought, but certainly the more sensible option has been mentioned above - hold with the extra fuel you've taken (!), then head off somewhere else if it can't be safely flown . . .
