Florence

There's no instrument approach.What is possible is to break off the 05 ILS to the right - head towards the city then hang a left staying outside the large antenna that the Italians have helpfully placed in a left base position.Once you're past it head downhill towards the (very) displaced threshold for 23. It's a special qualification for Captains and not used much.It slows down their already pedestrian landing rate even more and they'll only use 23 for landing if there is a fair old wind blowing. In which case the windshear around the antenna ( it's near Fiesole) offers fun for everyone.
