This whole ABQ thing is really blowing up. I wonder the statistics of other carriers issues with terrain vs us. Compass is gonna end up making the FAA look into pilotless cockpits since we can’t manage to do a damn daytime visual approach.

”Compass 6007, cleared visual approach runway 8.”

“Unable. Not equipped for that approach.”

We can't keep an airport centered in the windshield on a 100 mile final, but at least they told us which pages in the manuals talk about circling approaches.

Remember when runway 26 was a visual with a company mandated 700ft base to final turn?

All we need now is an ABQ LOE

LOE 666
All runways except 8 are closed, you have no alternate, and getting low on fuel oh, and dispatch is not getting back to you. The ILS for Runway 8 is out of service and your only option is to shoot the straight in visual. You declare the emergency so your legal, but.. The real question is... Can you handle a straight in visual for runway 8?
