DOCKJOCK thanks for your reply.
I have been looking at various plates and couldnt quite work out why most of them are 'side on' approaches, your reply answers why.
Its obviously not used as a final approach method, just a way to become visual.
So, if you descend to say 350 AGL, what happens then if you are at a right angle to the runway. Do you remain visual at that height. turn and land or re-climb and follow a standard NDB approach.
?????
Cheers for your help.
