Capt Sailing: You're just looking at the new chart, the old one says the MDA is 470
B: We are too low and below MDA.
Capt Sailing: My charts here from 2004 and 2008 show an MDA of 470 so technically we aren't low at all.
B: We are below the current MDA of 500ft, Go around!.

Carl stated that AF/kLM's share of the flying has gone up while ours has shrunk. You tell me, is that true or not? Unless all the data is fabricated the answer is it's not true. I don't get what the above on your post is about. If your going to compare our share of flying over time you have to look at the past. Not quite the same as a approach plate but I think you knew that.
