Approach Classification

<< < (2/3) > >>

EHM-1001 Robert:
Oh no, I meant you ar 7 nm from treshold at 2000 feet and starting a -3 degrees descend. That is the final approach, and it does not matter how you reached there: visual, or with navaids.

EHM-1570 Bruce:
I think I would go along with classing it as a visual approach.

EHM-1617 Iain:
Well, I'd be tempted to go with VOR, as there's no glideslope, only a localiser, and that's pretty much what happens in a VOR approach ;D

EHM-1343 Jonathan:
I'd say Visual like Robert...if you landed without autopilot after say, 7-8nm...then i myself would class that as a visual...

EHM-1617 Iain:
Woah, it has absolutely nothing to do with the autopilot at all. If you had flown an ILS by hand... well you get my point.

It all depends on the primary final approach aid used:

ILS, obviously go for ILS
VOR, VOR
NDB, NDB
Your eyes, Visual
Backcourse localizer, probably VOR in my view as it is most similar and the descent is done in the same way
