Yes it is a jet (and not a helicopter) approaching a field in crappy weather but it shows that even after the minimas have been reached...you're still not home and hosed:

Good call by the crew! Usually the approaching minimums (DH) call by George is made 100' to go I could be wrong though. It certainly highlights the fact it's not over until your at the gate or on the ground.

Nice find FF.
Check your personal e-mail. I just forwarded you some Go Pro footage from an approach I shot the other day.
Twist grip, you'd be surprised how poor the vis is out the front of a wet 737 windscreen, add to that night black hole approaches in the middle of the pacific
with a forecast that was apparently meant to be CAVOK.
