![]() "Kevin Chandler" wrote in message ... I have the same issue with an NDB approach into Butler Co. (HAO). The reason for the circling only at HAO deals with the differences between the MDA(1200) and the airport elevation(633). The FAA does not consider it possible to descend with a straight-in approach in a safe manner per the FARs; therefore, they only publish a circling minimum. It does not mean that you can't do a straight in. I suspect you have the same issue where your MDA is 600 ft and the airport elevation is 55. Have you flown this approach? Is it easy to get down to the airport while at the MDA and at the MAP? Yes, I have, Kevin. Here in Central FL the land is very flat. There are no obstructions close by either. It has to be something other than the delta between MDA and airport elevation. Simon |
