Because you are relying on the A/FD as if it were the only relevant source
of truth.


You don't consider the NWS to be a relevant source of truth? Why did you
ignore my other question?




That is not what I said.

And I am ignoring your other question because it is pointless, as is this
conversation.

No, Ron. It is you that does not get it.

You're ignoring it because you cannot answer it.

Surface aviation observations are required to be disseminated.

I hate to re-open this long dead thread, but...

Take a look at http://204.108.4.16/d-tpp/0502/00548I2.PDF. It has a note,
"When Control Tower closed, except for operators with approved weather
reporting service, procedure not authorized". So, what makes an "approved
weather reporting service"? If all observations are disseminated, why
would only some operators have the ability to fly an approach based on
these observations?

This is a different situation. There is no weather minimum the controller
has to ensure is met prior to issuing a clearance for this approach.
