Quite correct Wing Root. RNAV or no RNAV though is really not the issue. True, the ability to line up on a straight in approach is much safer than having to circle. But this discussion is about visual approach path guidence. Once on final and visual and especially once passed the MAP, crews should have all the assistance that modern ground based aids can provide.

In this day and age, it's nothing short of scandalous that those with the power to make this happen, lack the will to do so.
