descent below minimums
Can I descent below minimums on an intermediate stepdown segment of an
IFR approach if I have the runway enviroment in sight? On a very steep approach such as the backcourse loc-A to Santa Maria,CA, I would like to start descending below 1700 feet prior to reaching PATER, in order to facilitate a more comfortable decent in VMC. Legal or do I first need a visual approach clearance?
