N.O.D. :very true and well said !
andrasz : You're correct, I edited my post accordingly. This is the Polish Military who migh not accept this "go around" order ( like most western military would not either) the action of the previous YAK crew, as you correctly point out could have led the controller to think that, "what the heck" those Poles are doing what they want anyway " or something similar.
And kept open a large hole on the cheese.
Could the controller had been more pro-cative and offered the PAR guidance ? probably yes on hinsight. And there under PAR (GCA) guidance , a break approach instruction is mandatory everywhere on the planet.
But on an attempt ( a try ) to make a visual approach ( which is basically what they were doing : waiting to see the ground to decide ) a controller can do little, as the controller mostly is not aware of the minimas of the aircraft and the crew.
But it is not only the Poles military that do not trust RVRs reports and want to see for themselves and would try APPs anyway even under the worst visibility conditions. "Let's try APPs" have killed many in the 70-80s" where "minimas" were more flexibly interpreted. A better understanding of the respective work of each other (ATC and PIC) and a global fixed set of rules for everyone would help closing holes in the cheese and preventing similar accidents in the future.
