Instrument Approach error?

I have asked before and nobody dare touch it.
The elefant in the room if you will,,,,,
Likely occurance:

A gross error in flying a " IFR " approach that was not picked up by existing procedure or common practice !

Why? We shall see.

What I like to know is how is it normally done, what equipment is needed.
What training is done , what standards apply. What is common and what discression does the Crew have? ???

It is hard to compare Heli SAR/NS oil IFR,and Airline but lets try.
After all in BGO , SVG and Aberdeen we are all just a number on the ILS, inbound.
So basics are the same, Me Cat C, You Cat A!

The outbound IFR to VFR transition, is what an old B 737-800 driver is interrested in.
Can anyone enlighten us on this, please?
It is unlikely this senior crew messed it up, if Your procedure is solid.
So, me thinks :the procedure is not good!

So, again : What is the procedure, in detail? Anyone?

With Great Respect
