Why? Because you cant. There’s no approach guidance of any use, PAPIS at 3.3, if they are turned on, which they hardly ever are. It’s short, narrow, uphill. It’s also in a valley, with the approach over the sea. Just about every visual illusion you were warned about is ticked by this place. I have yet to see anyone fly a 3.3 degree approach to touch down here.
Kid yourselves if you want to, but you’re not living in reality.
Well, in that case Jonty please answer my previous question; would you do this in the sim on your check?
