SERA 2015 and IFR minima (and legality of DIY approaches in Part-NCO)

Sorry, but that is exactly what a KingAir-Pilot thought about 10 years ago and a CitationX Pilot about 5 year ago at my home base.

The elephant in the room for non-instrument short runways, say 500m, is with 500ft MDH as you pass runway threshold, how on earth you would land in a fast touring SEP?

Making oppressive and counterproductive rules for everyone based on the few machines whose slow flight and landing performance is thus crippled, or to protect one or two idiots as described by @Malibuflyer who can’t be bothered to use Google Earth or Garmin Pilot to check terrain altitude is, or was, the “EASA disease”.

I think that has changed. EASA now seems ready to return a measure of personal responsibility to private pilots. Libertarians applaud this, perhaps not least because it makes neo-totalitarians cry.
