Seems like if you had a DME tuned to a station on the airfield and you were looking at the distance and thinking about whether you were at a reasonable altitude for the distance, you wouldn't find yourself fully configured and less than 1200 ft above the airport elevation while still 9NM from the threshold. Is that not a thing anymore?
