Interesting.
we can't leave 4,300' until within 5nm on VASI, or the circling area - the 5nm comes first obviously - which correspondes to 4.4DME - leaving the a/c about 900' high on profile...
Since runway 35 is "equipped with an ILS" which means the edge lighting is at CAT 1 standard then surely you could descend once within 7nm IAW ENR 1.1 - 23 para 11.5.5? I could be wrong but the lighting standard applies even though you are landing from the "wrong end".
