Whats the problem using Radio Altimeter for 1000ft and 500ft calls? If there is terrain on final then so be it, its going to be more conservative than flat ground anyway right?? Because youll be actually calling it earlier than on approach over flat ground. Many operations use radio altimeter and I believe it is superior than pressure altimeter, because if there is terrain on approach the call will be early. What's wrong with that? Unless you have a 500ft hole prior to the threshold but I think thats unlikely lol!
