Landing minima, Speed & Aircraft Class
Thank you for the answers so far to my question.
The FAA states that whilst the aircraft class is set and does not change, the minima to be used if operating at speeds relating to a higher class are the minima applicable to that higher class e.g. a Class C aircraft operating at class D speeds would operate to Class D minima. (See FAA-H-8261-1A Instrument Procedures Handbook - Section 5 Page 7)
This makes sense to me as higher speed means larger turn radius (as was pointed out) and also at a higher speed the aircraft will sink further during the time between inputting power for a Missed-approach and actually beginning to climb, so a higher DA/DH, MDA/MDH should be appropriate.
However, what I actually want if possible is to know what the European rules say; not about Aircraft Classification, which we all agree is set once and for all time, but about adjusting which minima are to be used based upon speed rather than solely upon classification.
Once again all comment greatly appreciated.
