Problem is, Jim, some owners do not want to comply with PT criteria. Instead, they just want the flight to take place. Been there, seen it. I was once "investigated" by an external auditor for daring to delay a flight for ten minutes whilst checking if an IFR alternative was available before departing a private site in marginal met conditions, to another private site.

I don't work there now.....
