Things taken out of context here : RE the BHD incident .
When you say the pilot was asked to go have a look and see if he could get into BHD , it was not a request to bust minima but to depart and see if the weather would improve by the time they get there ...there's a difference !
The Van Air SOP's are following every aspect of EU-OPS and the pilots are NOT encouraged to disregard the regulations and Ops manual , on the contrary ... hence the consequences to individuals who did . That's all I have to say besides asking everyone to refrain from making incendiary statements without knowing what they are talking about .
