There is nothing in the regs, the AIM, or the controller's handbook that specifically addresses this situation, so roll your own.

(S# CD-2) Bob Gardner "HankC" wrote in message . com... 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? Vaguely aiming for a point on the extended CL always seems too, well, vague... Should I turn on base way out here and then a right turn onto the centerline? fly a 45 degree angle (heading 155) to the CL? something else? Thanks, HankC |
