I haven't burst any blood vessels, it would appear a few guys are though.

The 260 ' below the minima is a deliberate planning action, they knew what in all probability was going to occur, to get an idea of the disposition of the runway prior would seem a very well thought procedure, don't you think?

The whole issue is " when can you go down below the minima?"

On the contrary, not selective, factual.

The consensus seems to be, so long as no suitable alternate is within range, you can do whatever you like, regardless of fuel state. Curious, no? Note no blood vessels at risk here
