At the bottom it lists S-ILS 16R # 5138 - 1 7/8
But at the top left it says: # For inop MALSR increase visibility to 2 1/2
So what is the purpose of the S-ILS 16R # minimums - when would you use 1 7/8 ? Would that be only if you can't make the 390ft/mn and the MALSR is working? It seems like 390ft/nm isn't very much (550fpm for me), but I guess it could be hard for a C150 or 172 on a warm day... but then there would not be any clouds.
