No more visual approaches at night.
FAA says no more visual approaches to 28R when 28L is closed. And two Controllers in twr until evening rush over.
Wow, I wish I would have thought of that.
A thing I forgot to ask you chaps that regularly frequent SFO with airliners: Is the whole operation of 28L and 28R done with noise in mind. Ie, when traffic is less in the evening and at night they regularly shut down 28L and give visual 28R ( Wx permitting) to keep traffic away from the shoreline to the left.
I assume this is the case . And I could read the airport details, but I am interested in what they do , not what they write.
In my humble opinion , local rules and regs for noise make for way to much unnecessary yank and bank .
This accident avoided was created partly by the noise people.
With CDA ( Continues Decent Approaches ) there is no noise until 500 feet spool up. It is time to revise all departures and arrivals for modern jet.
A bit of drift there: Lets get back to the LOC and get on the GS.
KISS from Cpt B and FAA
