Ludicrous, Nonsensical, Farcical etc

It's ludicrous, nonsensical, and farcical, that with modern technology we still have to fly ridiculous circling approaches. Especially to the most challenging airports in counties where UN aid is injected into the economy. Just pay the 10,000 US $ and have a RNAV approach designed where any GPS/IRS/FMS equipped aircraft can fly a straight approach to intercept a VDP/DA/DH as appropriate.

My 10 cents worth…
