Operators MDA/MDH choice
Hi all,
apologies if this has been asked before, But I was wondering why some operators use cloud ceiling/visibility at/above MDA (non precision appr) for Weather minima for Destination, and others use MDH?
and the same for Weather minima for Alternates: Some operators use (prec/non prec) Cloud ceiling/Visibility at/above DA/MDA and others use DH/MDH?
Just wondering why this is not a standard setting, or does it depend on the Helicopter equipment?
Regards.
Bob
Any insight on the above would be appreciated.

1. You decide suitably of airfield by looking at TAF/METAR and compare with MDH
2. You typically (depending on company) fly the approach down to the MDA with QNH set.
That's it, isn't it.
