So 3.3 does make it quite a bit more difficult in terms of configuration?

Saw a Freedom flight come in the other day on the 25 approach, but you guys are the only ones who use it, though I can certainly understand why at night (from a safety and noise abatement perspective).

In that article TrustPower have offered to buy the airport company an ILS which has been refused (I assume TrustPower thought it was as easy as buying them one and installing it), although PM is pretty much setup to accept a precision approach, of course maybe they are waiting till GPS precision approaches are available.

Surely a precision approach would be welcomed by Freedom especially given the wind conditions that exisit on that approach and therefore help ease that stress load
