Is there any reason, or regulation, that states that a pilot, flying
VFR, is prohibited in flying a GPS approach to an uncontrolled field
(assuming VFR conditions at the field), or must the pilot fly the
usual pattern to land?
The only part of the approach that actually happens in the traffic
pattern is the very last couple of miles. Usually you can fly the
approach and then work into the pattern with traffic. While you are
out there doing your procedure turns, etc you are not anywhere near
the traffic pattern.
