Default RNAV vectors

Stan,

Just curious why you picked SENNA and not FRZZN as the waypoint. From
"Turn left 10 degrees to intercept the final approach course", I'd assume
I'd intercept outside of FRZZN, but perhaps not outside of SENNA. I would
think -D- FRZZN with a course of 002 would make more sense.


It makes more sense to set up the first published fix in this case,
where the course remains the same. If the clearance were issued
correctly (off route extension of published segment) the clearance would
be to cross SENNA, not FRZZN.
