Only PAR approaches on 36, but FR don't use them, so it always a visual approach joining left down wind coming from the north. Normally its a STAR from Mende to the NG NDB, then breaking off with a radar vector to downwind or self positioning. It's also possible to do the Circling to land, ie flying the ILS 18 to circling minima and then circling for 36! But it's not normally required cause the cloud base is usually not a factor when 36 is in use, it's usually a howling wind!
