This is great guys, thanks!

I didn't know the 6-6-6 stuff was 121. Yeah, I won't touch any 121 stuff for now to confuse myself. at least I know what it is now though....

Chrisdahut1, I was told by my inst that since the tower is in the 'air' it counts as inflight visibitlity. thats why if they say the visibility from tower is xxx, thats it... altough I looked at inst procedures book, and it says I can shoot the app no matter what. doesn't say anything about tower, so I guess what my inst said was not valid.

Germb747, you say when I have app lights in sight, I can go 100feet below mins. I thougt when you see the app lights, you can go 100agl. not 100ft below mins? (if MDA is 580, I could go 480 you mean? I was always told to go 100 AGL)

oh, I have that guide btw. its good stuff....
