@scavenger:

I have noticed this idea becoming more common. The altimeter is the most important instrument for IFR and to use a QNH for an aerodrome 100 NM away is lunacy, especially if it is treated as an approved QNH for the purpose of reducing the MDA/DA.
I was told this by the Head of Standards for a very reputable operator.
