So should we be pressing for civvy airports to install PAR? If you think SRA 2-miler is easy you should try PAR to 200ft...

I am sitting at Kaunas in Lithuania waiting to fly the Citation back to uk after five day trip away.
I would recommend anyone tries a PAR as well as with a safety pilot seeing how well you do flying the ILS to the ground.
It was my experience being in a situation in a Seneca Twin with problems where I took a PAR to a 50 foot cloudbreak years ago that urges others to try it if for no more than a fun challenge.
The controllers doing the talk down were brilliant and well aware at the colour code red military base that I was not going to be visual at 200 feet.
After that just through curiousity I was interested to know whether a zero zero on the ILS was possible?
It is if you use a radar alt set at 10 15 feet for flare
