"(1) Subject to paragraph (2), the commander of an aircraft shall not make use of any radio navigation aid without complying with such restrictions and appropriate procedures as may be notified in relation to that aid .. .. .."
Forgive me if I have not correctly followed this thread but what restrictions and procedures apply to a VOR in open FIR that it is being suggested would prevent that VOR being used for a cloud break without air traffic consent. For example at GWC there used to be a published approach procedure I believe. At least one operator on the airfield has CAA approval to continue to use that procedure. However, for someone flying the "procedure" without CAA approval what restricitons prevent using the procedure for a cloud break?
