Hi,
Does EASA or any EU operator require to add correction to DA pubblished on charts in NPA (VOR or NDB) ? In my company we have to had 50 ft only on pubblished MDA flown as CDFA but, if it is already a DA we just fly down to this minima.
I heard different opinion about this like in this old thread : http://www.pprune.org/tech-log/455445-mda.html

Thanks for you opinions!

Hi,

In my company we have to add 30' to all NPA minimums, except the circling. For circling we use the minimum stated on the chart. We also fly it as a CDFA.

You fly a circling as a cdfa?
Interesting...never heard of it before..but why not..better not be vis/ceiling limited then...

De Facto, I suspect that Gerzson flies the approach to circling minima as a CDFA, not the entire routing round the circling procedure.
