DD has misquoted what I said regarding the G/A. I actually said it should be CONSIDERED.

Whilst the SOP may mandate a G/A, you may find that the situation is such that a G/A may present a far greater hazard than attempting to land. Approaching TS might be one scenario with associated windshear and other nasties.

One very wise old hand once said to me that SOP in reality means
"SUGGESTED OPERATING PROCEDURE".........

At the end of the day good old fashioned common sense is the deciding factor.
