Offshore Approaches
I wonder if there are operators out there who allow the pilot not having the rig obstructions on his side to do rig approaches and take offs. This has always been a point of debate with my friends as I feel the pilot who has the obstructions on his side should always do take offs and landings for the simple reason that you get a better judgement of the approach and should you be unlucky enough to get a single engine the chances of a safe landing is much more.Most of the captains with me practice a 50% captain and 50% co pilot approach. We practice a straight in approach. Is there any JAA regulations to this?
