I’ll be the first one to admit it’s harder then it sounds but as aircrew we’re getting paid to say no.
With scattered rain showers in the forecast you need to plan wet numbers or contaminated.
If it’s tight then better tell the principle they have a 50/50 chance of going to an alternate.
A 60-70 mile drive is not a real inconvenience vs going off the end.
I’ve had to explain once that I’m sorry but I can’t tell you I can get you where you need to go till we’re on final with the runway in sight.
Limo’s were arranged for two alternates.
Non towered airport, 5000’ and our wet numbers where above that.
