That would be similar to the the next to useless American 2000-odd page Australian Airway Manual that doesn't have change bars? No wonder your beloved foreign operators have trouble.

Let's not get carried away. What pilots have crashed doing a CDA using the chart type/technique that Aeroscat has posted?


Perhaps that is the problem. As far as I am concerned, the 15% slope...

And too little can also cause a crash. The number of CFITs during CDFAs would be? The number of CFITs during Dives and Drive...

Retired F4, there are other official documents around from EU land that address the MDA + 50 ft technique used during CDFAs; sorry but I can't put my finger on them.
