Interesting Approach

[JTFC]

Droopystop,

Brilliant!

If the airfield in question is one of the northern outposts then it certainly sounds like cloud break to circle, (4.2nm radius), turning to keep within the terrain, as said operator does many times on a daily basis thoughout the year. Sounds like a perfectly stabilised approach to either 33/15

And even although the old Saab's getting on a bit, I'm pretty sure they're not operating with sufficiently big enough holes in the airframe for you to poke your dampened finger out to make a wind assessment.
