Helimutt,

My point is that you are doing a non-approved GPS letdown (maybe an NDB approach if some of the rigs still have them) below MSA in IMC with fare paying passengers. You must be IMC at some point or there is no point doing the approach if you are VMC.

And yes there are no wires at sea but there are some big structures that move and can be hidden on the weather radar by clutter.

And if you aren't happy, why do them? Just say no. Simples! Think we know what would happen (or has happened) if you did that?

Ivor,

Did he come from the direction of Bewl Water?
