I'm 10 miles N of the field and the tower calls for a straight-in on runway 20.

What's the best way intercept the runway centerline?

In good VFR conditions, I'd just head straight for a point on the
extended centerline about a 1/4 mile out from the runway (i.e., a
base leg at a very obtuse angle).

In other cases, I might boogie over to the centerline and a decent
angle to pick up the localizer (if available).
