The perfect and A squared:

Indeed, A, had they followed the NA on the Jepps they'd not have shot the LOC approach. The error in question seems to have no impact on this accident. Being lower than mins at a given distance did ... so I'd say Old Boeing Driver has a valid point.

Reaching back to Somewherefaraway and his post, his point was that the approach in question is not kosher to shoot at night per a UPS SOP or rule. I'll take that at face value, and ask myself: what approach were these gents flying?
