You're nto going to be able to do that safely with 1/8 from 200' or
thereabouts.
1/8 mile is pretty ****ing small! That's Cat 3a minima.
I can't
think of any reason why this would not be. A typical GA plane may be
stopped on the runway before a 747 touches down. I think vis
requirements, in general, for GA planes are a bit bogus, at least with
regard to precision approaches.
Hand flown, you would have a lot of airplanes crashed into the approach
lights.
An excepetional pilot would be able to do it most of the time, though.
most of the time.
And I've done a LOT of instruments in singles and light twins. 1/4 is
reasonablem but 1/8. no.
Maybe this is different to me because I live in a fog valley.
Oh, you don't ever see fog at home, do you, Bertie? :-)
