Being given a Star at 150nm apended with Instrument Procedure does make for interesting descent planning.

Will they change it to the visual procedure as I pass through 10,000', thus knocking 10 or more nm off my track, thus leaving me too high? Or, will I descend early to accommodate the possible change to visual procedure, only to actually fly the instrument procedure and gobble a whole lot of fuel down low?

And what farkin' approach WILL I brief??????
