From: half way between the gutter and the stars.
I was reading the AIC late last night - and so might have missed something.

Am I correct in thinking...Inbound: You fly your chosen route towards the relevant holding point. Having listened to the ATIS to get the correct runway & other details.

You then fly around the holding race-track pattern until you can safely slot into the approach with the a/c in front? You may have to go around the racecourse more than once. I presume you do this at circuit hight?

You then fly onto the approach - and when wings level you call up a brief radio call (to the relevant frequency). And that's the only radio call you actually do? Nothing from further out? Nothing advising where you are when inbound?

Or did I miss something
