In the case of incident mentioned, based on what the air circus astronauts go into print about....a visual approach can be commenced at the end of a STAR...seems counterintuitive to me...but it ain’t Cessna flying.
I know it’s not unique it’s the first one that came to mind as it’s the last visual I did.
I guess that’s your opinion, personally I don’t find it any different to flying a cessna or a helicopter for that matter, maybe I’m doing it wrong. You make a good point, procedures/requirements vary from operator to operator.
