MSA is not an operational altitude...it is for emergency use only. Read 5-4-5 AIM. Agreed. However, the context of this discussion seems to be pilot-nav random routing and the reason for a procedure turn at this particular approach. It is not a vectors-to-final routing where ATC may assign an altitude. Are you of the opinion that the IFR charts suggest that when on a random route and NE of ALIKE (but south of the BJC 090 radial) that 7300 is a perfectly OK altitude to use? My teaching has been that when not on a "solid black line" or receiving radar vectors from ATC, to not go below the MSA, OROCA, etc., for that area.
