hi

could someone clarify the standard overhead join.
i know the caa version but i was taught what the instructor called the ICAO standard overhead join, which is to pass overhead the middle of the runway at 1500 aal decend on the deadside making a left hand turn. pass overhead the mid point at circuit height and then turn onto the downwind leg. i am told by my instructor that passing over the mid point is the safest place, a kind of safety zone.
