From a union point of you it was the visual manoeuvring (not approach or terrain on approach) required once visual that they were concerned about. NZAPLA wanted higher minima and some approach lighting for commercial night ops. These improvements go further that this which is good. Sometimes off the RNP you do require some aggressive movements to gain the profile, the more ques we have at night the better.
