Thanks for that. I understand that is the procedure for an approach from the south. What happens if you are approaching from the north?
You fly to HAI VOR at sufficient altitude. HAI is at the airport. Then you fly southbound for about 10 NM, make a teardrop turn and return for approach 02, break off to the left for right downwind 20.

In a non-radar environment anything but stick to this procedure at night is suicide.
