Here's the scenario:
You're established on the ILS final approach course for runway 30L, and you check in with the tower. You are cleared to land, and you acknowledge. About 30 seconds later, another aircraft calls ready for take-off on 30L. The tower clears this aircraft for takeoff, and amends your clearance: "When you get the runway in sight, sidestep to 30R, runway 30R, cleared to land".
Here's the catch: There are NO sidestep minimums listed. You are executing the ILS in IMC (not to minimums, but IMC nonetheless).
Is this cool?
