Hello,

"The airport weather around 2250Z (time of accident):
FMCH 292300Z 21025G35KT 9999 FEW020 25/16 Q1017 TEMPO 18015G30KT="


They had to use RW20. Is it correct that there is only a visual approach possible on RW20 and no ILS?

Has anyone here experience with a visual RW20 approach there at night?

I would assume that if there are no lights on the mountain it is a very dangerous approach if straight in is not possible.
