I have never flown in there in bad weather so not fammiliar with their procedures. All advice will be gratefully recieved, that was the point of the post.
Gloucester only has a DME and NDB. You can fly a DME arc as part of the procedure. A DME arc is just that a DME only arc!!! The 10degree nibble is the easiest way to fly one. I find that if I mark one eyeball what I think the first heading is, turn on early then watch the the DME as it changes then add or deduct (depending on the direction of the arc) 10 degrees and work my way around the arc.
Oh and for the record that link I sent you is to the AIS site which you should have access to as you are checking NOTAMS and AIP data aren't you?
So I hope you have learnt something in aviation today?
